I had also some difficulties with 'Elvis.prj' for TURBOC where the
make list (including isdigit and the other t.. functions) was wrong
and I had to remove all termcap/* files and replace them by 'tinytcap'
which has all above functions.

Since the make file was wrong for TURBOC, the one for MSC could be wrong
too (however tinytcap is there!). Try other things.

On TURBOC it didn't work the first time and I had too use the 'HUGE'
model and remove all ANSI C checks (my job is also to specify some
C Standard on UNIX).

However Elvis (Presley!) works fine now.

Can somebody indicates how we can change the colors (easily): I have
no time (so many things on the net: for instance this new fractal for
IBM with GIF output for my Amiga !!!!!).

THANKS to the originator of Elvis anyway!
