No.  What we were talking about isn't the screen restore as the program
closes, but another option that really wasn't all that impressive unless
you were really into bells and whistles for the idea of it.  :)

I believe I did mention both the fact that the original DOS screen was
restored and that sweeps came from different sides/top/bottom.  THAT bit
of fancying up IS rather impressive, and a nice touch.  :)  (Good thing,
too, as I don't know of any way to turn that off.)

 ML> call it a bit of pink on a red rose instead of seeing it as a thorn,

The screen restore sweep is indeed a nice touch, a pretty accent on the
rose...  :)  I'm not sure that I'd call even the exploding screens a
thorn, though, since one can turn it off.  Perhaps a gilding of the
lily, that disguises the natural beauty?  :)

PS  I saw in some other echo that you've been quite busy trying to get
things to work... is that why you haven't taken a turn in KOTB and
Scrabble lately...??  <G>  I noticed that there was someone else that
showed up in the Scrabblke game long enough to set up a couple games,
but hasn't returned to play.  I joined one of those...       neb

... User error.  It's not our fault.  Is not!  Is not!
