    Hi All
    I've been lurking for quite a while and learned a lot from this board. I asked my DH to make a program for me so I thought I'd share it with you. Hope it
    will come handy for some of your layouts.
    Hope it's ok to post this here. Otherwise, please feel free to move or delete.

    Happy Quilting!

    Oops. Forgot to post the link.

    Do you use Windows? Which one?

    Up to and including Windows Vista...
    After you download the file, double click on quilt.zip and select "extract all
    files" then you will have a file quilt-msdos.exe and it should just work.

    If you're using Windows 7, you can go do www.dosbox.com, click on
    downloads, windows then you will have a program called dosbox.exe
    Double click on that to install it. Then put the quilt-msdos.exe into
    the dosbox and it will run.

    If you have any problem, let me know and we'll try to help you.

    We don't use Windows but if someone here has a C compiler and
    would like to compile it to a native windows binary you could email
    me the binary and my DH will put it on the webpage.

    It says to open the file it wants to extract a file. I'm not sure what this means or does.

    Thanks you for your help and the program, it was really generous of you and your husband to do this. I hope it works with this computer.

    I have windows vista and I can extract it but I can't seem to get beyond that point. Is there something I'm not doing correctly or missing?
