Help!

I'm trying to Pexec the TDI Modula compiler and linker (MODULA.PRG and
LINKER.PRG).  I've tried using both Pexec from Alcyon C and GEMDOS.Exec from
Modula2.  The Symptoms:
    The compiler/linker is invoked and if there are no errors (like file
    not found, or complilation errors...) then it returns, and all is well.

    If, on the other hand, an error does occur, then the Mouse is ignored
    (I've enabled it with an AES call, but I can't click on the [CANCEL]
    button. I have to use the <return> key...)
    Also: the compiler/linker never returns! A shrink-box happens, but
    control is never returned to the Pexecing program!

As much as I like Modula2, the TDI desktop is not suitable for large
programs (mine has >20 modules)... I need some type of MAKE facility, but
I'm beginning to wonder if it's possible...

If the facts do not conform to the theory, they must be disposed of.
