In the directory you stash your source code you're compiling (where your typing tcc at the prompt) there should be a file called TURBOC.CFG. Inside this file you will find the various command line options that are set when you invoke tcc.exe unless you override them with other options. At the end of this file on a new line stick a -P for forcing C++ compiling. If this doesn't work then read the manual. It always works for me. Craig (mwizard@eecs.ee.pdx.edu)
