	I have the Computer Innovations C86 compiler and the Intel Fortran
compiler on a machine running CPM86. My problem is that the C86 compiler
produces object modules for the Digital Research Linker and the Fortran
compiler produces object modules for the Intel linker. The Intel linker
came with the Fortran compiler, but the C86 compiler did not come with
a linker (I didn't expect it to). Now I would like to link C86 programs
with Fortran subroutines. It seems that what I need is some sort of
translator to create Intel-type object modules from Digital Research object
modules. Does such an animal exist?? If so, where might I get it??

	I realize that I can just go out and buy the Digital Research linker,
but that would still leave me with incompatible object modules.

	Another possibility would be a translator from the C86 object modules
to the Intel format object modules. The C86 compiler produces its own variety
of object module, which is then translated to the Digital Research format.
