Tony, Sad! It ridiculous. Obviously no-one ever showed this guy the Utilities manual so he could run IEBCOPY instead of inventing PCFORM. So how does one tell the US patent office that they got it wrong? Ron ================================================ /snip/ You don't. Just wait for the guy's lawyers to send a "cease and desist" letter, then fax the relevant pages of the tech manual (including publication date), stating that it is well known published prior art and that their patent is invalid.
