Ah!

Thank you for the refresher! Still a couple of questions:

1. How should the exec & nlist struct be defined (not in coff.h)?
The EMX(PC) definition is:
struct exec
{
  unsigned long a_info;
  unsigned a_text;
  unsigned a_data;
  unsigned a_bss;
  unsigned a_syms;
  unsigned a_entry;
  unsigned a_trsize;
  unsigned a_drsize;
};
Would this somehow be misleading if used with DJGPP?

2. How would N_MAGIC be defiend? As ZMAGIC?

3. What about SEGMENT_SIZE ?

Thanks,
Ben
