The interesting thing is this: I do my coding in a W95 DOS box. I can run DJGPP compiled stuff fine, but as soon as I try to start up the TP6 IDE (to edit code) the DOS box crashes and W95 displays the familiar "program performed illegal operation" stuff. The kicker is that if I start a new DOS box, and run the TP6 IDE FIRST in the session, I can run DJGPP compiled stuff just fine, AND the IDE then works too, without crashing the DOS box. The key to safe use is this: Always start the IDE first, quit, then run DJGPP stuff, and then it is okay to restart the IDE later to edit code. Any idea why this happens? -- Spawned By Rylan Is truth beauty or beauty truth?
