You must, however, change your current directory to RAM:. Then, move the commands you want into your RAM: directory but do not change the assignment of C (it should be SYS:C). Now when you use one of the commands, your Amiga will look first in your current directory, before trying SYS:C. If you had a meg or more of RAM, this would be great, but with 512K, it gets cramped when your RAM disk is holding your source, object files, AND the compilers and linker. Surely there must be a way to assign more than one possible directory for searching for a command. Right?! How about assign C: SYS:C,C1.0:C? If not a comma, what about a space? I haven't tried it yet, but I will. Lee
