This is bad too, maybe worse.

try usrc166.zip ... I probably dont have the latest version - but I
have added the fix to TEMP problem to this one.

I know, but I am definitely missing some release manager. I have to care
about running company (contracts, etc.), about HTML renderer bugs, about
website, about release... :( I hope to employ some more people after this
summer, because enough money should be accumulated for that.
If you are interested in some more tight cooperation, ie. taking care
about what official version of something is, you are welcome ! I would
just download before new release ;) (but do you rememeber your broken APM
? ;-)

Hmmm... maybe we shoudl change to getenv.

Well, I think more file handles may be used for overlaying ? I am not sure
why this limit is needed. Someone should try to check it..

I thought that compression is performed usually by modem ?
