Hi there,
	I am using gcc on my 486 MS-DOS sytem to compile some X-window programs
under DV/X.  Unfortunately, I have come to an impasse due to the a limit of
ms-dos command line interpreter.  My makefile puts out a line that extends
over the 256 byte limit of MS-DOS.  I lose any characters that extend beyond
256 and my compilation can not be completed.  Are ther any freeware programs
that abolish this limit?  Any other suggestions?
	Thanks for your help.
