Could someone tell me how or direct me to where in the documentation I can 
find the way to increase the "stack size" in Turbo-C?

I am not an expert in C and am using the integrated environment for my
programs. I have my compiler set to COMPACT model. A programm I am 
working on, was causing bizzare behaviour, so I turned the "Stack Overflow"
warning on. This indeed showd I was having stack problem.

I have been through the TC manuals and have found the _stklen variable which
sets the stack size, however don't know how to set it to a larger size.
If I type the following before main():
	 extern unsigned _stklen=6144;
It seems to set the stack to a larger value, but the linker gives the 
following warning:
	__stklen defined in module GPX.C is duplicated in module STKLEN

Any help will be very much appriciated...
