Hey Rob, et all...

We dont all work for MS developping MS WIndoze multi-mega-file compilation 

cycles ;)) Then again finding a bug in C is hell... That's for sure... 
Creating a 3 line script
line in RR compared to C is a 2 minute job, not 2 days (or hours for 
gurus)...

Besides, I thought incremetal compilers were the answer to the linking 
problem... You just
recompile the changed code... Possibly dependencies if any.

Worse is by far, retesting... While you can test on the fly on MC/RR, you 
can't really
do that on C systems...

But the worst case scenario here is if you develop externals... Compile, 
copy to the stack
folder, run, test... Crash, fail test or run...

Externals should be made easier and crash proof IMOHO... I miss 
CompileIT... ;)

Xavier, et al:

There is also the issue of "support" or "update" speed:

Change one character in C library source = recompile library, relink 
all applications, and distribute new copies of the application.

Change one character in Transcript library source = distribute a new 
copy of the library.
