Thanks Tomasz,
I have to admit it has been a long while since I looked at the
package. I don't remember that you provided a DevC++ with your
package nor examples. At that time I was struggling to understand
AFL. DLLs were not all that easy from what I remembered. I will have
to take a peek at it again. I have a use for it now, probably why I
didn't look at it all that close before. Glad I misspoke or I would
not have gotten a heads up from you. And others who have not used it
may be intrigued too. As easy as "Hello World" is nice.
Thanks again,
Barry
