     I did put the line about smartdrv.exe into autoexec.bat as you suggested.
The hard disk may less noise as the compiler worked away so I suppose it did
what you expected.
     I read in a computer magazine that we'll all have gigabytes of RAM and
terrabytes of hard disk space before long.  I won't know what to do with 
gigabytes of RAM unless I can address it, and if I can, it's going to take a
computer 100 times faster than present PCs to run programs which require that
much RAM.  Things are moving swiftly however.  An 800 mhz 64-bit merced with
6 128-bit registers will almost do it for me.
     You are certainly on my list of valuable resources.  I hope I don't need
too much help as I move on to transcribing the assembly language parts of my
codes to gnu c/c++.  We'll see.
     I see a "may" on the 2nd line which ought to be "made"--typing!
