Some compilers have difficulty with large C constant strings, such that ECL had to append the data to the fasl files instead, but I thought that this problem was mainly a Visual C++ limitation (perhaps it's no longer the case if *COMPILE-IN-CONSTANTS* now works for you)? I admit having to myself enable this as part of my build scripts, as it's no problem with GCC and it's friendlier to binutils. I guess that at ECL build time, if autoconfiguration can reliably test for this limitation, it'd be possible to have it default to T with compilers that support large string constants? > 3.

I personally have no experience with ECL on Windows though. -- Matt ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ LogMeIn Central: Instant, anywhere, Remote PC access and management.
