   I'm trying to install a user tool set.  What I have is some code that I want
modules loaded at run-time to use.  I dug into the ToolBox Ref vol2, and 
followed the instructions given in Appendix A.  However, when I run my program
(which installs the toolset) the system hangs inside the SetTSPtr routine. I
traced the problem to the fact that an incorrect function pointer address
is being referenced.
   I've checked and double-checked my code, and I believe it's right (as
specified in App. A).  I remember that there was some discussion a while back
on this subject, but didn't pay attention then.

   Here is the important bit of the code...
...
	pushword #$8000	;user tool set
	pushword #66	;tool #66
	pushlong #CallTable
	_SetTSPtr	;do it
...
CallTable	START
		long (TheEnd-CallTable)/4
		long x-1
		long y-1
		...etc...

Is the toolset number 66 a problem? I don't think it should matter, since
the Locator expands the TPT to the proper size. Or should I just use #2?
(#1 seems to be some sort of default user tool, somewhere in ROM).

Perplexedly...
