"Dynamic" >loading is a term used concerning run-time and shared library loads. >(At least that's the BSD and SunOS terminology). Well, SunOS terminology, anyway; current BSD releases don't have that flavor of dynamic loading. If the original poster has a system that *does* have that flavor of dynamic loading (SunOS 4.1 - 4.0 has most of it, but doesn't have the run-time part; System V Release 4; AIX 3.x; Apollo Domain/OS; possibly others), he probably wants to use that instead of dinking around with "ld -A" and one of the large collection of routines to load "ld -A"ed files....
