Ooooops ... sorry :( Thanks for the reminder about HTTP being
nonseekable... actually when I get buffering working, I should allow a
seek within the buffer. Actually, that would make coding things a bit
more difficult (buffer is shared between two processes, and the writer
is in a tight write loop, so that would introduce more complexity), so
what do you say: is an in-buffer seek worthwhile?

Buffering is in an almost-working state here on my local copy ... but
I abandoned it in favor of partitioning a new drive and now homework
(argh!). I'll gladly get back to work as soon as possible; it's almost
there. btw, buffer on OS/2? How to do?
