Geoff, A good suggestion - thanks. I've used it to define my own "theProcesses" function. (Naturally it had to finish by replacing "numtochar(13)" - ie return - with "return" - ie linefeed - I'm still whinging about the lack of a constant '\r'.) So I'll withdraw my request for "the programs". But there's still no substitute for "answer program". So Rev team - please keep this on the wish list.
