[comp.os.msdos.programmer] MSC 6.0 limits

Steve_Gale@TRANSARC.COM (01/01/91)

Microsoft C experts:

Does version 6.0 have the same limits as the 5.1 version?  For example,
the maximum macro expansion in MSC 5.1 was 512 bytes.  Has this restriction
been lifted in version 6.0?

Thanks in advance,
Steve

	There are a lot of changes/enhancements in MSC6.0 from 5.1 including
more ANSI compatibility, based pointers, in-line assembly.

	Specifically about Macro expansion, the limit is now 6k.
