I have already reported the space problems he encountered. He says that the way to deal with such problems is to put all the object files in a TXTLIB. However, when he tried to do so, he received error messages to the effect that the ESD had an invalid record format. Apparently, the Whitesmiths C compiler produces object code which can not be put into a TXTLIB. Can anyone confirm or deny that this is the case ? Does anyone have any way around this ?
