Help, I'm desperate.  I need to use an OBJ file createdby Turbo C++ in my 
Modula MODULE.  Apparently, this is supposed to be able to be done using 
the FOREIGN [C|PASCAL] DEFINITION MODULE statement, but whenever I try to 
do this, it says it can't find GRAPHICS.MOD, when I want to use 
GRAPHICS.OBJ.  BTW, I do understand the difference between object and 
source code, so that's not the problem.  Apparently, when MODULEs are 
compiled using FST, they are of a different type than OBJ files. . . they 
are M2O files.
I tried one other thing to get it to work (it didn't) I set the compiler 
to output OBJ files and tried to use MS-DOS's LINK to link that OBJ with 
the graphics one.  It didn't work, LINK complained about missing CODE 
SEGMENTS (I think). . . HELP!
