As I said before, we probably agree on most of those points. This is not my idea of how to do business. But to get people to develop this technology they need to first see how it works. And the only way they are going to look at the program is if it is in a .exe format. So many modules have to be linked with Perl for the compiler to run that for most people it would be an impossible task. I had a tremendous amount of trouble getting that done myself. The response I have had so far is that the program is running on my contact's computer. However, I forgot that it needed to access a file I did not send him and it froze at one point. But, at least the graphics ran which was what I was concerned about. Hopefully the next report will indicate that the test was a complete success. In any case I am going to take it over to another person's residence and try it on his computer that has not had special software installed over the years. If there are any more bugs I should be able to catch them there. If you checked on that source code you should have seen that there were quite a few lines of code. Right now there are close to 5000 lines.
