Hi Chris.

I checked the web home page, and found it was the one that NAB bank
was promoting but I couldn't use it because I had Netscape and OS/2
and therefore didn't have the (expected, required) MS software to
connect with the various services like FreeFax. I could do a few free
things but that was all.

I guess it's a case of I got what I paid for.

Hi,
I've got a client with a Telstra BigPond Direct dialup service for sale.
Should be able to change the account details over, (haven't asked
Telstra yet).

This is an ultra-reliable professional permanent dial-up connection with
a POP in Adelaide.
Fixed IP, complete with small subnet of IP addresses.

This has a minimum monthly charge of $20 & had a $500 setup fee, as you
get a dedicated port to dial into.

The client is moving to ADSL.

All reasonable offers considered.

Hi Graham,
Err, its C++, the ++ means to increment.
So C++ is an increment of C in functionality.

Some useless, (Java), coffee-table conversation fodder.

Anyone got any books on IBM C Set ++?

My references are at work, so I'm working on memory but, the only way I
would expect this to be more like:

#include <iostream>
using namespace std;

int main()
{

// Actual code.


Also, when the error message says "before", it generally does mean the
error is before the code pointed to.  And it can be surprising how far
before the actual problem is.

Sorry, I can't be much help.  At the moment I'm doing Smalltalk (at
work) and REXX (at home), and C++ has been pushed out of my brain. 
Maybe I should say "swapped" out.

Hello Daryl,

Does that mean you also have a system called Samantha and two systems bot=
