Dear Messrs. Meyerling & Eggert:

I understand, and am sorry to have troubled you then:  I was under the
impression that whatever adjustments to the code for the Windoze port
was part of the project.

If you could possibly direct me to the maintainers of the pre-compiled
Windoze port (I'm certain that I downloaded it from the gnu.org
Web-site) I shall redirect my question to them.

Thank you for your prompt response.

Very truly yours,
Robert S. Kissel
Hamden, Connecticut
