davidf@dfanning.com
(David Fanning) suggested:

which works for the Macintosh.

But wait... The fun continues. This particular choice doesn't work on
Unix! There, I need to explicitly put in String(10B)! AAAAAARGGGHHHH
;-(

I guess this is just another one of those "You can make the code
cross-platform, but you have to try it on each platform" gotchas!
