Sydney, Australia. Lines: 12 Sorry, I forgot my signature last time. Another matter. There was a question about fakfp.s (fake floating point) along with an incorrect list of items in it. The fake functions call a message printing routine, eventually in trp.s. I noticed that the kernel also links in trp.s. This is not nice - it wastes space and brings up the possibility of the kernel calling itself with an int 0x20. There must be routine(s) which need to be annulled better (like exit() already is). Probably not floating point :-). Bruce Evans Internet: brucee@runx.ips.oz.au UUCP: uunet!runx.ips.oz.au!brucee
