Re: finding the right place in a RRN file

[boothm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx]

I am trying to learn this stuff;  I see a lot of RPGII and it doesn't
upset me.

But I am trying to learn this new stuff.  Like now:  
I am wondering where/how *IN90 gets turned on in this bit?  
And why "count = count + 1" is better than "add 1   count"?
