 Marc and everyone else interested, 
 If you can program in C++ on your computer then there is a way
 to change the "sendmail.cpp" file in order to send the output to your
 default screen.  This should be in a FAQ somewhere.  :-)   Another
 option is to send the code to me.  I have a "test-server" set up and
 I can compile your code and make it possible for you to play your
 code/game through my email address.   Many like this option since
 they can actually play their games on my server with others who have
 accounts here.  Now I am not sure with a perl language program; I
 think I would not allow perl programs on my server.  The reason is 
 that I need to look through the code to make sure it isn't some kind
 of virus or worm, and I do not know perl very well.  (Recently, I had
 a program that went a little wild and I needed to tell the programmer
 I needed to take it off-line.  :-(
