Reed) Newsgroups: comp.sys.cbm Subject: MERLIN question Keywords: MERLIN, allocating storage Message-ID: <13892@hydra.gatech.EDU> Date: 20 Sep 90 05:33:39 GMT Sender: ccastmr@prism.gatech.EDU Organization: Georgia Institute of Technology Lines: 18 Any MERLIN users out there? I want to allocate a block of storage but not initialize it (no HEX, TXT, et). I tried ORG *+nbytes, but that just changes the pseudo-PC without actually allocating any storage...... when the code is assembled, those nbytes bytes aren't there at all! I'm currently about 120 miles away from my manual, and there doesn't seem to be a recognizable pseudo-op table in memory with Merlin...help! On another note, I recently discovered that Power C is no longer available from the publisher... if anyone knows where I can obtain a copy, I would appreciate it. Super C is still available, but after my experience with Super Pascal, I'm wary of anything vaguely related thereunto... Mark J.
