I'm sorry Mark. It wasn't a post but E-mail I received. The author stated
point blank that I was wasting my time because only experts can spend time
engineering such a project. All the postings that I've seen have been
favorable.

I'm sure that's just software that reads signature info from the part.
For my purposes I'm perfectly happy to be able to program only one class
of parts.

I've examined the Elektor project and I find it to be very good. It just
doesn't serve my purpose as given so I'm modifying it a bit. I just
resented the fact that instead of offering good advise that some certain
folks have to be critical without having all the facts. 

Again thanks for all the helpful hints I've received.
