Ed, PMJI, but something you said really hit a nerve: > FRAMSCALE has been downloaded 58 times. Anything over 50 dealing with > Animator is a hit (It took 5.5 months before anything I submitted had been > downloaded 50 times.) Do you have any idea why this (the low number of downloads) is true? I've always been surprised that so few POCO programs are uploaded, I'd have thought (actually did think when I first got AniPro) that it would turn out to be more popular than AutoLisp was with AutoCad since it appeared to be more powerful as well as being more closer to a mainstream language. Without telling too many tales out of school, I've done some simulations of full miltary systems (which I can't upload for obvious reasons) which could not have been done any other way. However, I have uploaded some stuff when I can, and checked the library for download counts before writing this. Some of the things I put up a couple of years ago are nearing 450 downloads, which using your 50 criteria, would mean I'm almost going "platinum" <G>. It's also curious that I've never had ANY feedback from anything that I put up. I guess that means it was bug free, or so bad that it never worked at all, or (even worse) completely useless. But, in any event, I'll keep trying. George Nelson
