Yes, I realize there's something funny going on every time I compile the 
pongd.d file on my Windows box. I once took a look at the assembly of 
one of the pongd.exe's I compiled and saw that control flow quickly 
proceeded to a buffer overflow. That occurred during one of my builds, 
wasn't sure if it was going to happen again or for anyone else. Sorry 
for that trouble.

Going to work on it. Again, sorry for that possible virus. I have to 
clean up my computer, not trying to spread viruses around.

Thank you,
