Re: A85: Shells and games



Pardon me all to bits for making a suggestion to everyone,  I personally
like Usgard but i never as the message announcing 1.0 and Andy's page was
never updated until version 1.1 two days ago.  i ask because I want so
feed back from other people about the idea....If you just go and make a
shell in you own ideals and you think it is the best one in the world
that's fine but if everyone else hates it what good is it.

*_*_*_*_*_*_ more stuff in the quotes from me *_*_*_*_*_*_*_*

Here's an original idea: read the message! (Understand that I don't have
the skills yet to writte my own games also SEE THAT IS MESSAGE IS A
SUGGESTION TO THE SHELL USERS AND PROGRAMMERS THE IDEA WAS TO GET FEED
BACK NOT A BUNCH OF STUPID FLAMERS!!!

LOOK!!!! I'm also a programmer, (for Basic, Pascal, C++, and Java) and I
care how many people use my software.  If I am going to make a program
and not want money for it I would like as many people as possible to like
and use it.

have to many shells!
