Of greater annoyance to me is the fact that Megamax-compiled programs
crash if IO is redirected from inside Micro C-Shell.  The SAME
program works fine if named PROG.TTP and invoked from the desktop,
entering ">OUTFILE" into the dialog box.   This is an old problem,
but I havn't heard from either company yet.  (I don't know if it's
Megamax or Beckemeyer's "fault").  Contrary to recent claims, it does
not matter (from C-Shell) if I use ">outfile" or "> outfile".
It never works - I get two balls with lighted fuses.

Any solutions?  Are the companies involved going to do something
about it?  The products (Micro C-Shell and Megamax C dev. system)
are generally excellent, and sales of both would gain if they'd
work together better.
