    To "therube" below:

    You are right on this. That is why I suggested that they include it in FileForum yesterday night.

    You can contribute too: whenever you find that there is a program or a new version of an existing program which was not posted in FileForum, suggest it to the Forum. They usually act fast on your suggestion.

    To do this, click on "List a Program" at the top of the page, whose address is
    http://fileforum.betanews.com/addprogram
