Great, glad to know this is still going -- it's a great technology.

I've made some progress; the only change necessary to get past the dictionary file read
was to modify a string read method TE_handle_fgets to break (without character skip)
when a '\n' character was found.

Currently, I am looking for a problem in the reformatting code, OpenFullOutTiger, where
I am getting a segfault reading back in a internally generated file (internal.vit).  Looks
to be in the ns loop.  I think the problem is that the file needs to be opened explicitly
to read in binary mode, but haven't found how to do that yet (there are some odd redefinitions
of file modes that I haven't tracked down yet).

mike.

Yes. I have just been busy with other stuff recently.

I changed the "end-of-line" character from '\n' to '\r' because some
of the data files have DOS-type newlines (CR+LF). I should have done
it cleanly the first time, but I was lazy.

Anyhow, the code should look roughly like this (and at some source
files it already is):

#if WIN32

#define EOL '\n'

#else

#define EOL '\r'

#endif

....

// read_stuff_until_newline
if(EOL == '\r')
  read_one_char();
