Note that if you post source for your desk accessory or other
program, people can recover from minor transmission glitches,
rather than asking for a total reposting due to "CRC errors".

Of course, this requires that you specify what environment to
compile the source in.  It's a shame Apple hasn't seen fit to
provide a "standard" language environment other than junk Basic.
Howabout a standard C environment, Apple?
