Especially as I have in the past expressed my unhappiness with Lattice in no uncertain terms. First off, i notice some people have had trouble setting up. I can't see anything wrong with the assigns i have seen come across, and i also have had no trouble with almost identical setups. All i can say is double check that lcerrs.txt is in the right place. Also be sure you have set your stack to 40000 or so. That could be the difference between the lattice-supplied workbench and your own. Anyway, Lattice V5 is a real nice piece of work. The symbolic debugger is terrific, the manuals are good, and at long last lattice includes a make program. Although some folks have been lukewarm about LSE, i think it is fine, and the ability to just hit 'f4' and have a compile happen is really nice, as is 'next-error' in the editor. All in all I am thrilled to death with this system. It is enough to make me want to hack C on the Amiga again. So a heartfelt Thanks to all at Lattice who put this version together. ron
