Will it use the whole memory instead of just the 64k address space? If so, can it be altered to use virtual memory on a hard drive? BTW: If it's up to snuff, I might want to put it in the MultiROM -- so I'll have to get back to you on that. Financial return won't be too good on it though -- we're trying to make it cost as little as possible, and we've only got 10 pounds budgeted for profit -- so that'll be about 50 pence per multirom per author -- or something like that :( > I have got this compiler now.
