As a matter of fact, I usually set my Win2K/NT shells to about 5000 lines. (Right click on the title bar, select "Properties", then the "Layout" tab, then set the "Screen Buffer Size"'s "Height" to whatever you want.) However, for builds of our whole (~2K file) system I generally prefer doing it under Emacs so that I can easily search for "Error"s and "Warning"s. --- T.E.D. homepage - http://www.telepath.com/dennison/Ted/TED.html home email - mailto:dennison@telepath.com
