  it is not annoying either. you learn about the restrictions, and you
  code around it. having it the way it is now forces you to use
  function prototypes (= good).. if you want your whole file to be
  in one segment, grab all the functions, put a set of function
  prototypes at the top of the file, and append the __...__; tags
  that define the segment.

  John, some people are just too damn lazy. next thing they'll want
  is a frontpage like environment for coding on the Palm.

  i personally dont believe it needs "improvement" - because it
  works very well right now. if your not smart enough to figure
  it out, bad luck. your foo() and bar() example works.. let them
  start there..
