I apologise for repeating this discussion but I wonder if anyone >could send me the details. I have just uploaded a program called RABIT to drycas.club.cc.cmu.edu. It is in [.info-dec-micro.uploads]rabit02.zip. What it is: RABIT is a TSR that is designed to trap the bad interrupts that PC compilers generate on the Rainbow, enabling programs like Turbo C++ to run the Rainbow w/o code blue (command line version only). Known problem: RABIT does not get along with Code Blue. If you run code blue with RABIT installed, your rainbow will crash. I'm working on a command line version of RABIT that will get around this problem, but I have not completed it yet. Many thanks to my beta testors for this. An extra special thanks to Jim O'Brian.
