Jez- I tried BOTH 1.0 and 1.1. (The assembler is 10.178 in both, but Alink got promoted from 2.20 to 2.30). I wanted to see an assembler listing to try to figure out what all got hauled in (including maybe two funcdefs). I thought at first that Assem was SLOW! Nope! it is dealing with macro expansions within macro expansions within….. and 10 levels of includes to boot. Must sizzle with a single source file! I think that one of the reasons that the listing output is so big is that tabs are expanded (I think…). I know it costs about as much time for a string output DOS call as for a single character… still stupid, tho. Someone will find a lower-level call that works, I hope.
