Hello,
I've some problems with 'ar'. I'm working on a 4D/20G with System Level
3.1D .
Problem:   ar qv `lorder *.o | tsort`
comes up with an error message: word too long
when I have about 100 object files in the current directory.
I guess this is a rather silly small limit for ar.
Please report any hints/guesses also directly to ZRFL@DS0RUS1I.BITNET  .
Thanks in advance - Heinz
