I believe that the libraries that are provided to do RPC on a microExplorer only run for MPW Pascal 2.2. I know that they do not run under MPW 3 (most of the libraries would have to be rewritten and it is unlikely that TI is doing investing any efforts in that direction). I dont know for a fact that you can directly link C code but there is no reasons why you shouldnt be able to (at all rate, you can always write a small Pascal program that interface the MPW C code with the microExplorer). This actually brings an interesting question about the future of the microExer. Since TI hasnt invested any work into integrating the mac world and the ti world on the microExplorer since it was released (except for the TBI), will they actually maintain it so that it will run under release 7 of the MacOS? If so, it would be a good idea to provide interfaces to MPW C and Pascal rel 3 and also to Lightspeed/Think. A good clean foreign function interface (NOT RPC) would also be great... If the bridge to Hypercard would also be maintainedthat would be super. What are the chances of seing this happen some day? M. Manago IntelliSoft
