It seems to me that emTeX is really better than sbTeX and dosTeX. I thank I am going to give it a try. (But first I have to free up some space from my disk....) Also, my problem about getting above the 640k dos boundary seems to have no solution. Several people suggested me to use the extended memory and configure as expanded memory where codeview can use to store stacks. I have obtained several programs from simtel and they all have a common problem. It takes up too much main memory that I don't have enough memory to load codeview and my program together. I try to run another program which then puts the expanded memory into dos, but the program doesn't work because of the $A000 boundary. I guess the best way I can do is to upgrade to DOS 4.0 or get a newer version of codeview. But I do appreciate all the help and response I got. Thanks a lot. kfslam@sunee.waterloo.edu simpson@maxwell.waterloo.edu simpson@kingcong.waterloo.edu
