	This should be:

#include <libraries/dosextens.h>

	That will work, but technically, it should be:

extern BPTR	Open();

	This will kill you if you linked with Lattice's lc.lib.  The
particular version of fprintf() being used in this example is found in
amiga.lib, so to make this work, don't specify lc.lib during the link stage.

	If you want to use Lattice's fprintf(), then you should use fopen()
instead of Open().
