If yes, your're the only one to get that to work! Well, I can't really say. GNU C is the only program that I've compiled that had a function >32K. I had this problem with 5.05, and not with 5.10a. It could be that the 5.10a compiler is better enough that it sucked the code size below 32K, but for whatever reason, I don't get that error message anymore. I wasn't clear at the time if the problem with 5.05 was the size of the code in an individual *file* or an individual *function*. Perhaps they fixed the 32K limit on the file and not on individual functions? Pure speculation. [where to get GCC] >Hmm, thanks for the info - I have no ftp access, unfortunately.
