{
Here is a unit that I've played with a bit.. I have no idea who the original
author is. What it does is expand the Runtime Errors reported by TP and
optionally logs it to a file that you supply the name to.. It works fine for
me on MSDOS 3.3 and 5.0.  If you make any improvements to it I would
appreciate a copy of it..
