   I have the horrible feeling I'm about to make a fool of my but anyway
   here goes.

   I wanted to explore some alternative thread displays in SNEWS so I
   got the source of 1.30 from ftp.d.c.u and, as the first thing to do,
   tried to recompile it.  No problem with the C code but the assembler
   routines gave something over 500 compile time errors with every
   version of MASM I could lay my hands on.

   Now the question.  Is this something to do with TASM specific 'ideal'
   mode coding? or am I doing something incredibly silly with, for
   example, the MASM command like options?  If the former I'm rather up
   the creek as I don't have TASM.  If it is a TASM problem would
   someone in a good mode please email be the .OBJ files for the
   assembler bits.  I very much doubt I would want to change them. So
   provided I have something to link in I should be all set to start
   some experiments.
