I am developing a (very) large C program with the Microsoft C
compiler under Xenix 2.0.

With the linker I have the following problems:
- using the -Gt.. option I sometimes get "too many segments"
  Can the maximum number of segments be changed or is it
  a linker limitation??
- Again using the -Gt.. option, I sometimes get "segment exceeds 64k"
  What can I do about that?

And for the Xenix Operating System:
When I finally have a linked load file, I sometimes get the message
"Not enough core", however we have AT's with Megs of memory.
Larger load files sometimes load good, while smaller ones (390k)
give this message.

Is Xenix OK for such large programs??  Please post.
