Unfourtunatly, in keeping with the quality standards of error messages that that have established in other areas, the way in which the problem is reported is by saying cannot find file .... Check to see how that file "initstr.h" was included. Was it from another include file ??? Merry Christmas, Lewis. PS: I suspect the reason behind the problem is the mac limit on the number of open file descriptors. Sadly, if you munge the bootblocks number of open file descriptors, you get no extra include file nesting. This pisses me off. -- ---------- The facts expressed herein are subject to change without notice ... UUCP: {humming,linus,harvard,security}!lewis@axiom.UUCP
