 BUG FIX RELEASE                              bmorris@islandnet.com

--------------------------------------------------------------------


This version fixes (at least, in the situations I've tested) the 

AWFUL crashes that prior versions of DCK experienced frequently on 

some systems.


The problem was simple: Borland's 32-bit DOS extensions have a 

serious problem with what is called "stack grow", a function of the 

run-time system.  In some conditions, stack grow would not work 

properly (especially with stack-hungry functions like graphics 

routines) and an invalid portion of the stack would be accessed, 

causing a page fault.


Surprisingly enough, Borland never even *mentioned* this to me.  

The bug fix came from the people at Metagraphics, who wrote the 

graphics routines for Borland's PowerPack system.


Thanks, Metagraphics.. and sucks to you, Borland!  :)
