probably for the clear screen routine... that or the delay routine... in fact,
the delay routine is the one that lead to all the runtime 200 errors because of 
the way they did the calibration loop and didn't check if the result was zero
before trying to divide it by the number of seconds the calibration loop ran...

yeah, there's sample code for web available... i think they're in lazarus...
there are a couple of others, too, IIRC...
