..., but I DID look at the manual just then... The Toy I referred to was the total caution-free use of my F77 compiler which is now somewhat limited (just a tinsy-winsy bit: ports) in what it can do on an NT or XP operating system. I like quick clean coding and F77 gives it for far less effort than anything else I have tried over the years. Pascal came close but I found Fortran more flexible.
