Only with Aztec can you fit workbench, the compiler and the libraries on 2 drives, *and* compile with your temp files in RAM:. Lattice just eats too much memory for that: you have to put your temp files on physical media. This costs you an extra disk and about a factor of 10 increase in compile time. Aztec used to be plagued with compatibility problems, but the latest version (3.40a) has a very good Lattice Compatibility Mode. -- -- Peter da Silva `-_-' ...!seismo!soma!uhnix1!sugar!peter (I said, NO PHOTOS!)
