	(Assuming a 512K Amiga)

*	Make sure you have at least an 8K stack... (my stack was 8K when
	I compiled the VT100 under Lattice). 

*	Make sure you REMOVE the '#define MANX' in VT100.H, and *keep* the
	'#define LATTICE' (e.g. pick one or the other).

*	And, for the larger modules, you cannot use the RAM: drive to
hold the temporary (.Q) file...you run out of memory either causing the
compiler to crash or to give up.  Hopefully you have two drives and can 
specify your compiler disk as the temporary drive (it must have at least
100K free).  If you specify the same disk as your source is on as the
temporary drive, the compile will work... but take forever.

	Try using the XMODEM protocol and/or a different terminal program.
