by the way, the .reg files included appear to create the wrong data type 
in the registry, due to the registry files being written incorrectly.

They create a data type of REG_BINARY instead of REG_DWORD, which is 
probably what should be used.  All of the other registry values in that 
subkey have the type REG_DWORD, not REG_BINARY.

instead of the line
"NameNumericTail"=hex:00
and
"NameNumericTail"=hex:01


use
"NameNumericTail"=dword:0
and
"NameNumericTail"=dword:1



please correct the 2 reg files nonumtl.reg, onnumtl.reg, and 
djgpp2\v2faq\faq22_19.html



oh, and by the way, lbinstdj still complains.
