Well....I knew what you meant 8-) but then again I'm the world's
pest smeller. After having used Eudora for about 10 years, I felt
sorry for them and gave them some money, so as of yesterday, I
now have a functioning spiel checker so I KNOW there are no
smelling mistakes in my email.

I usually clear all memory at start up (assembler person here), so
if I don't see lots of 00 bytes towards the top of ram then I know
something is fishy. Studio does have some form of stack monitor
but it only "works" with some tools not all IIRC.

You will be absolutely ecstatic to know that, earlier this week,
I installed the ICCavr thingy from the CD we got at the seminar.
Now that I have a Mega64 (or 128) board and a JTAGICE I may be
able to get the 'Hello world!" program working in C. :-)
