Hello Dmitry,

I just downloaded prima.zip.

That's it! No bout adoubt it! ;-)

I had a look at the stuff they write about this MLU, but couldn't find
out exactly what it is or where to get it. It's probably some kind of
driver I have to load. It may also be a library you have to link to
your program. What I could find out doesn't inspire confidence. Lots of
functions still not implemented and some only as dummies ...
Most of the unicode stuff for Windows won't work or not as expected on
95/98/me. My conclusion: Useless if you want something portable.

"Just" turn off that MS unicode mess and stick to the traditional
ASCII-Functions ... ;-)
So, simple recompiling probably won't help me.

Norbert
