Good point. Actually I modified your invita.dat sample to move the 
cursor to line 22 which was even better on my terminal because with 
your 23 line setting the top line of the message was jumpimg off the 
top of the screen when I ran the message from my Dos Shell. The 
shell I use must insert an extra linefeed before the Dos prompt 
making my effective screen depth 22 not 23 or 24.

Actually I was a little disappointed that the resulting program is 
only a Server. I was expecting an executable utility which we could 
use in our own environment ( not source code though - I can never 
get C source material to compile ).

Bet you get heaps of please send "Happy Birthday" to mi frend on her 
b'day requests  :-) :-)
