Duck ... you must be joking .
I've got lattice and the dev kit.
The only good thing about the dev kit is the info and most of that
is irrelevant and some of it wrong including the info on pexec() .
The dri compiler is bug ridden, the F.P. library unusable etc.
My copy even had ctype.h and setjmp.h missing (tho' the code/table
is in gemlib).
Mmm.. I do like sid though, and the dri C puts in a symbol table!
Adb it's not but its better than nothing.

Your info on pexec() is faultless. One other thing to say
is to remember to free some memory as described in the LAttice manual.

Anybody out there using another Metacomco product called
Cambridge Lisp ?
