Ok, thanks, that must be the problem.  I am using pilrc and your tools
from more than a year ago.  Do I just update the pilrc file?  I remember
having a lot of problems getting everything in the right location.  If I
update, does the new toolset put everything in the same locations that I
am currently using?

I know this may sound like a stupid question but there was quite a lot
of changes I had to make (in the directory structure) to get this
working last time.   The changes I was referring to was in the SDK
file/directory structure.

Are we at the point so that say I want to use SDK 3.5 (which I am
current working with) and your prc-tools, that I can simply:
1) install Prc-Tools from a single install file.
2) install the SDK from a single install file.
AND
3) Not have to make any directory structure changes.

Thanks


Mike
