Still though, this is a sample application, I think its lazy programming practice to illustrate to application developers that its generally ok to exit programs without freeing your resources. Its about 20 lines of additional code to change the sigint handler to flag an exit condition, and have all the other threads join on it. Neil > /Bruce >
