   Don't let it get to you David, you're on the ball and I for one love it.
 You can send bleeding edge updates to my box anytime..  I need the newest and
best for my OS project, and any bugfix is a good one.

   Fargo II is a wonderful kernel and I hope we can make some great additions
to it (especially some more games!).

For anyone fretting over constant source changes, simply build a directory tree
like so:
 Fargo
    MyPrograms
      Project1
      Project2
      ...
    Fargo0.2.x
      asm
      doc
      ...

   Then simply let your path include your Fargo folder and it'll find what it
needs.  When new versions of Fargo are released, delete the old folder, and
uncompress the new one.  Then run your assembly script.  Should take no more
than 15 seconds of your time to update to the newest version and be rolling
again.

Good luck all, happy programming!
