Okay, Earle Horton has been kind enough to point out just how stupid I
was, so the rest of you don't need to bother. I even figured out that
A3 wasn't being set up and I _still_ didn't realize what I was doing
wrong, which was not making a paramblock and setting "mypb^" to it. I
cut the source from another program which was already working, and
missed that part, but still that's no excuse.

On the other hand, my followup questions about _Launch and Working
Directories still stand. Also, let it be said that despite my grousing,
I think LSP is a truly wonderful environment for the small projects
that I do in Pascal- such as the following:

Program Penance;
  Var i:LongInt;

Begin
For i:= 1 To 1000000 Do
  Writeln('I will not use pointers without first allocating storage!')
End.
