Take heart!  Your just beginning to find the bugs! 8^)  As I understand it
there are a few more, though I don't have Alcyon C.  Did Atari give you a
list of known bugs when you got your kit?   BTW.  Everyone has been bit by
the pointer addition in C at least once.....

On a different topic, thanks to all that replied about MWC.  Based on 
those messages and some personal research, I ordered it through a local
dealer.  I specified 2.0 or >.  Is there a ">"?  Has anyone compiled a
list of no-no's in MWC?

These comments are mine alone and not Eastman Kodak's. How's that for a
simple and complete disclaimer?
