I've also tried LZEXE on Turbo C 2.0.  However, once you do this the
TCINST no longer works, because it is apparently expects the configuration
data to be in a specific spot in TC.EXE.  So, if you like the way TC is 
configured, then go ahead and compress it with LZEXE (and keep a backup
copy somewhere).  Otherwise, don't use LZEXE on Turbo C 2.0.
