I'm trying to use Turbo C++ 1.0 to compile the GNU swapping-spawn library.

The library was originally designed for MSC 6.0 and uses a construct that 
forces data to be stored in the code segment.

Is there any similiar directive for Turbo??  I was hoping that using something
like 

int _cs var1; 

would do that, but the compiler doesn't like it.  I'm wondering if just 
replacing _cs with near would do the trick, but I'm not sure that that just
doen't fool with the data segment.

Anyone know of a way to accomplish this (w/o going into assembler)??

all help appreciated,
mrc

also: anyone know what the typedef/struct  off_t  is, in MSC???
