If you would like, please extend the code and send me the patch. Please use the context diff format. That is: save the original program as stress.c.orig, then make and test your desired changes to stress.c, then run `diff -u stress.c.orig stress.c' to produce a context diff. Enjoy the program :-) Amos Waterland <apw@rossby.metr.ou.edu> Norman, Oklahoma 27 Nov 2001
