Hi

Yes, you're right! Dammit. Heres my lines

for i = 1 to 100 do
puts(1, "I must never question my betters, and always check my
     definitions")
end for

Seriously though, if you put those 5 lines into basic4gl program, it runs,
lets see the equivalent _entire_ eu program. I'm beginning to understand
opengl, but definately floundering with the (various) eu manifectations
of it.

Anyway, thanks again for the nice work - I'm going to keep on floundering - 
lol.

Chris

and when are we going to get word wrapping on this bally thing!
