Thanks, I'll check that out.

Hadn't thought of that, may try that in a future build or version. Most of the settings I have are saved in the games themselves and the game is coded to let the user change things that way.

It is not mine, and at the moment I cannot honestly remember where I got it from. I'll try to track that part down. I need to put a reference to that in the document too. As for distributing the source, if I had the source I would distribute it. All I had was the precompiled enhanced CRT.TPU that I found.

I'm now about 1/2 done with the documentation. Once the documentation is done I'll bundle up build 53 and put it on the same server as before. I'll try to finish it this weekend, but my wife is headed out of country again, so I'm going to spend time with the family this weekend. I'll keep checking back here. I appreciate the feedback.
