"The fault, dear Brutus, lies not in the stars, But in ourselves, that we are underlings." -- Shakespeare, Julius Caesar Blink is OK. The problem is in A68k. By misreading some easily-misread documentation in the AmigaDOS Technical Reference Manual, I had A68k put the MEMF_CHIP and MEMF_FAST bits in the wrong place. Version 2.5 corrects this problem. I'm not sure whether version 2.5 made it out onto comp.{sources|binaries}.amiga or not, but if you really want it you can send me a disk and I'll return it with the new version. I hope to start on version 2.6 Real Soon Now, adding forward branch optimization and an ARexx inteface to your favourite editor for error handling.
