I don't think you will get this working, since IIRC the segment registers of the generated code are used for temporary storage. I once had a patch to correct this, which was what JPI (as they were called in those days) used internally to bootstrap their first protected-mode compiler, but I think I have lost it. I _have_ had a certain amount of success with version 3 of the compiler, but have not yet located a good debugger. I spent a chunk of this very morning looking at the debugger that comes with the newest Clarion to see if I could get that to do the job, but it's looking for debug information at the end of the .exe file which v3 doesn't emit. I believe there is a Windows version of VID but haven't yet laid hands on it... has anybody had any success along these lines?
