If after converting 16,662 lines of code from one language into another and thinking you wouldn't run into any issues, then I'm not really sure how to finish this sentence... My free time this week was occupied either fixing foibles going to C# or trying to stay cool in the 42 degree Celsius heat (that's 108 Fahrenheit for the Yanks).
Special thanks to Howie for testing each of the 8 million builds I sent him.
A name in parenthesis and in bold is the finder of the bug/quirk. Thanks to all, I really do appreciate your time and support. Cheers!
