I'd like include the ability to add any Unix subroutine without having to modify the source. In implementing this I came to a point where I had to build a C stack and call the routine, rather than calling directly and letting the compiler build the stack. I've come up with a lot of kluges, mostly machine specific, and I rejected all of them. Has anyone out there come up against a similar problem and solved it in general? Or do you have a really ``nice'' kludge? Thanks in advance, Larry McVoy uucp: ...uwvax\!geowhiz\!lm arpa: mcvoy@wisc-rsch.arpa
