One of the mistakes I tend to make in my code is using integer instead of atom to hold pointers. This doesn't show up in Win95, but for other versions of Windows (and Wine!) it quickly crashes the applications because they tend to use higher memory addresses. My Win95 hard drive recently corrupted, and I've been using Linux since then. It's been a bit of a struggle - I've had to recompile Wine in order to use Windows applications that use OpenGL (it's not part of the default Wine binary). I've been spending much of this afternoon recompiling the kernel to get my soundcard working. It's finally working, but now my CD isn't visible, so I have to search xconfig for more settings... All this has put many of my projects (Euphoria, wxBasic, etc) on hold. *sigh* -- David Cuny
