The THINK C compiler could do a better job of documenting this
bug/feature.  Why can't THINK C's error message read like this:

	Error:  Arrays larger than 32K must be allocated from the heap
		see pXYZ, Think C manual.


This is my "wish" for THINK C.  We're beginning to get this question
as often as the "What does a flashing apple mean?" question!!!!!!!!!
