Hello:

    Chris at JPI stated that the developers moved flow-traced errors such as having no return statement in a procedure defined as having a return to run-time error checking because they did not have enough time to make it a comple-time error.

    I am surprised Quick MOD did not catch this error at compile time. I though Stony Brook's compiler was superior to most DOS compilers.

    Almost all C compilers following the ANSI standard will catch the error I mentioned at compile time.
