You can't spell worht a dam' for one thing:      ^^^^^^^^^

Way back in September, I don't think the builtin msvcrt was up to much.
You have a native windows notepad.exe, I wonder you don't have a native
windows msvcrt.dll to give it.  I still have to use one for my app, but
I hope that will change soon.
