[comp.lang.lisp] COFF file format needed

aab@silma.UUCP (Andy) (12/27/89)

Can anyone give me a pointer to a description of COFF (Common Object File 
Format). I need the most detailed spec available as I am writing an
extension to a LISP system to enable loading of compiled C code 'on the fly'
without exiting the LISP interpreter or relinking.

Also anyone who has done something like this or wants to discuss it is
welcome to email or call.

Thanks to all who responded. The info is in the manuals and yes I am
probably stupid as well as blind :)
