While this has been a long and tedious thread - and unnecessary (if Wirt
would would listen to Stan - and Wirt would take his own advice about
making
QCterm work like other windows programs following windows standards), but
I digress.

What I wanted to point out is that this is the kind of picking nits that
makes great products great, prevents memory leaks, system crashes, and
generally makes the world a better place...

By the way, has *anybody* supported Wirt's position on the issue?
