Matt, may I strongly suggest that before you officially release a -Commercial- compiler, that you run it through a C Test Verification Suite first. I'm assuming your compiler will be ANSI-compliant? Metaware has test suites available, as does at least one other company; I don't imagine they'll be cheap. Aztec & Lattice have a long enough history that users have flushed out a lot of bugs for them. Save yourself a lot of trouble and consider exercising your compiler on a Test Suite; I know Aztec bought one quite a while ago. +----------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | Dallas J.
