yup, he's right.  but hey, I was developing on a Mac, not cross
platform, so wasn't thinking universally, but locally.  actually it's
unsigned.

right again :-)  NUMTYPES is not specifically defined in the real
Pascal headers, I stuck that there so I could do a for loop from (0 <=
i < NUMTYPES) and not have to worry about which is which.  :-)  Make
sense?
