What your are looking for is definetly the Laser C package. It has *all* the features you require: good (and complete) AES documentation and RAM resident compiler and linker. This is far better than simply using a RAM disk for the program is in memory only *once*. Laser C also comes with a UNIX compatible 'make'. It has a GEM shell but you can *also* type in command lines like in a TOS-only shell. #include Rainer Klute ---- klute@irb.informatik.uni-dortmund.de Universitaet Dortmund, IRB |)|/ klute@unido.uucp, klute@unido.bitnet Postfach 500500 |\|\ ...uunet!mcvax!unido!klute D-4600 Dortmund 50 ---- Tel.: +49 231 7554663
