No problem.  I have the entire SWAG archive here-it's about 10MB compressed, 
but it's a godsend when you're programming.  I don't know if you know Pascal or 
not (seems like you do), but it's great to have.  Even comes with its own 
reader program.

Your spelling looks good to me.  About the parsing of the AREA: keyword-to be 
honest, I know very, very little about it.  I've never yet figured out how to 
work with the .PKT format, but I may soon so I can write my own message stuff.

I'd assume that there's people in here that could help more than I could (Mark 
Lewis comes to mind, so does Deuce [Stephen Hurd]).

Good luck with it and if you need any more stuff, please feel free to ask. :)

Later,
Sean
