You'd be forced to do that anyway. In the PC world there's the .obj standard, and yet you still have to provide seperate libraries for Borland, Lattice, Aztec, MS, etc. This is because each compiler uses 'helper' functions in its own library to do things like long arithmetic, etc. Also, library routines like malloc() are implimented differently and require different background machinery (and often header files) to operate. So even if Manx did use the BLink format, you'd still be forced to provide 2 libraries.
