I'm playing around with a history program that was posted to comp.binaries.ibm.pc. The makefile uses exe2com and mapsym. I am unfamiliar with these programs and exe2bin won't convert the exe file. Could anyone give me information on the first two programs. Are they public domain? thanks -- Brent

I don't think exe2com will work where exe2bin failed, and so you probably still won't be able to convert the .EXE file (do you really need to save disk space?). "mapsym" is a program used with Microsoft's symdeb debugging program (symdeb is the debugger distributed by Microsoft before codeview was written). It is NOT public domain. -- Darryl Okahata {hplabs!hpccc!, hpfcla!} hpsrla!darrylo CompuServe: 75206,3074 Disclaimer: the above is the author's personal opinion and is not the opinion or policy of his employer or of the little green men that have been following him all day.
