Anyway, have to wait till I get a Porting picoLisp to a non-POSIX system might be very difficult, as a lot of functionality depends on it. In this regard, miniPicoLisp is much easier, as it uses more or less only plain vanilla C. > I think you could create a C program that reads symbols & their values from a > compiled (and possibly linked) executable and writes a new executable with > functions aligned `by hand' to desired value.

Cool. But is it really able to relocate symbols? I couldn't detect that from scanning the above resources. If it does, what happens to other references from inside the object code to those relocated symbols? Cheers, - Alex -- UNSUBSCRIBE: mailto:picol...@software-lab.de?subject=unsubscribe
