Well spotted. Thanks for the patch. I have applied it to both the stable and development branches and have created new snapshots. btw. Thanks for the io abstraction patch. I have been intending to do something along those lines for ages but never considered it too high priority. I always wanted to do it so we can have a version working under DOS, Windows, Linux, etc at some point in the (distant) future... But I am very busy at the moment and will need a while to review the patch and mull over it a bit as to whether to take it as is or to change some things... Don't know yet, haven't really looked at it properly. Hopefully I will have time to look at it the comming weekend.
