This is probably of relatively general interest. My solution is this: First, manually load as into rez: rez as as /* terminates with error: 'no source file specified' */ then create an empty file in the working directory called 'as': touch as or type to as This makes CC happy. Apparently it has its own search path, and when it finds the empty 'as' it calls LoadSeg on it, which is intercepted by rez. I have a script file to do this for me when I set up my Aztec environment. I also preload cc and ln, because I get more impatient while compiling then while setting up the environment. With all the compiler stages made resident and the libraries in RAM: and the linker in quiet mode, the system is wonderfully fast. - ranjit "Trespassers w" ranjit@eniac.seas.upenn.edu mailrus!eecae!netnews!eniac!...
