A83: Re: Re: Numeric Input




Well James, from the looks of it, it was some guy name Linus who everyone
has a love/hate relationship with because he knew ASM, and you guys didn't
who explained how to do it. Of course, this was in July...but still. And his
explanation lacked a lot for clarity. If you have a better version of it
than the one he posted in July, I'd appreciate it.

P.S. Do you ever check your ICQ? I sent a request thingy days ago...
