 Ok, but that's just trying harder to find that good size that does not exist. 
I am going to do these, I was just hoping there was also some (3) that would 
make these (1) and (2) rather irrelevant. But after googling for Linux and 
the Win32 API from Mike I'm not very convinced by what I've found, so I guess 
maybe later.
