     Glad to see you got it going.  The Manx 16-bit int default can
bite you if you're not careful.  An alternative solution would be
to change the lines

   Write(dos_fh,"Please type an input line, then press RETURN\n", 45);
   howmany = Read(dos_fh,userinput,255);

to

   Write(dos_fh,"Please type an input line, then press RETURN\n", 45L);
   howmany = Read(dos_fh,userinput,255L);

i.e. explicitly cast those length constants to long, which is what
Write() and Read() are expecting.  In fact, it's probably a good
idea to do it anyway.

     (singing) Portability forever...  :-)
