John Sadler makes some magical things to make me read

} Did anybody know that the number of loose items are limited in C68 in the definition 
of the status area in qptr_h in the line
} char litem[40]
} ?

Yes, I did! I learned it the hardway when I wrote a program with more than 40 loose 
items. Just patch the structure to get more by increasing the number!

} Is there anyone whose programs would be disadvantaged if the number of loose items 
were limited to 30?

Why do you want to reduce that default structure size ?
Side note: what do you mean by "limiting to 30" ?

Double side note: if you are looking for memory waste, I'm sorry but you would get 
only 10 bytes back (at best) with this modification.

} How many programs would it affect?

At least one of mine (sprted) if you were to push that modification back in to the C68 
distribution...
