Intuitively it seems like this ought to be easy. But the format of the DOS object code completely escapes me. I beleive that this is one of the reason that windows created the new DLL format. Although I can't find out what that is. Have you had any success using DOS? Gene ----- This message came from GEnie via willett. You *cannot* reply to the author using e-mail.

Category 3, Topic 12 Message 32 Fri Apr 26, 1991 G.LEFAVE [Gene] at 14:19 CDT Dennis I just came across a strange result with pf68K that I'm running on the 68020. The following code: CODE EX R )+ I MOV NEXT : TT EX ." ????" ; prints the ???? when you run TT. If I change the NEXT to ,NEXT it doesn't, as expected. I don't understand this. Can you think of any reason why this should be? Gene ----- This message came from GEnie via willett. You *cannot* reply to the author using e-mail.

It does? Hmmm > If I change the NEXT to ,NEXT it doesn't, Remind me again what the difference is between the two. I've seen ,NEXT but I can't remember what it does and my 68K systems are at work. Is my assumption correct the ,NEXT is an inline version of the jump to NEXT? I'm mystified Gene! I'll have to try it at work before I can say more. {B-{)> DaR ----- This message came from GEnie via willett. You *cannot* reply to the author using e-mail.
