The truth is I don't have more than 85 columns displayed in my editor anyway, nor would I be likely to put more than one statement on any line. A whole Pong game on 16 source lines? Yeesh! I'm just mildly offended that I only get to use 73 of those columns displayed. Donald R. Fisher, III Project Manager Roomstore Furniture Company (804) 784-7600 extension 2124 DFisher@xxxxxxxxxxxxx <clip> I remember the fourth or fifth issue of PC Magazine back in the early 1980s. They published a PONG game in 16-LINES of BASIC. Not 16 BASIC commands, but 16 lines... jamming as much onto one line as possible. It was interesting then, but too confusing to work with. So more than 80 positions is okay because they really shouldn't be a limit, but it wouldn't change most programming styles (I hope). <clip>
