Hi You

I just got back on the net today after several months without fido-
modulation. Wheew, couldn't survive another week, doctor can take my
teddybear now :-).

I received my TopSpeed Ver 2.0 a couple of days ago, but haven't got more
than a short peek at it. I tried to compile the TsrCalc program that comes
as demo, and it grew from 45K to 57K of memory usage :-( And that was when
compiling to optimize space! Can anyone do better?

On the positive side, my m2 formatter ran 15-20% faster with the new
compiler. That's quite impressive, as the old compiler made some of the
fastest code around.

The enhancements seem to be there, but the manuals... well they are quite
good for the things they explain, but they leave out a lot. How about bgi-
support, e.g. And there are many modules that aren't documented. Graphics,
locale, and so on.

Regards Kaare
