Thanks Mouser.  :)

MilesAhead:
btw in the Online Archive Search some of my articles seem to have been attributed to one Michael A. Kelly.  I am not he.  I am a completely self-taught guy.  GED is the only degree I hold. :)  I just wanted to avoid any confusion.  I don't want to try to notify anyone at the archive as they are unlikely to try to fix it or if they did there's a chance the listings may disappear altogether due to some glitch.

In any case I am most likely the only one doing searches on my name there.  :)

Same here. :Thmbsup: ...I think it shows more drive to make it that way than being led by the hand and told what to learn.

Heh heh.  I can see some benefit adhering to a syllabus.  But I can tell people have a bit of envy when they encounter the self-taught.  You can choose what to read and focus on.  As example I played around for a few hours trying to write a recursive descent parser in C.  Then I asked myself "do I really need to know how to do this when I could just use Lexx and Yacc?"  Well, maybe if I was going to rewrite those tools.  Otherwise...   ;)
