Larry: Thanks. Between you sysops, I think I know pretty well what I'd better do. By the way, the assembly is coming along pretty well. The thing that fascinates most is the small size of the object code when doing some of the simpler examples and comparing them to the equivalent C code. While I own both Lattice and Manx C compilers, I worked entirely with Manx because the output is half the size of Lattice. So far, the assembly code seems about one tenth that of Manx. Perhaps, when I advance beyond the stage of opening screens and windows, this difference will disappear. For now, however, it seems incredible. Tom.
