Greetings Fred!
A long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away, a coded message from Fred Kantor
to Don Guy was intercepted...

I honestly wouldn't know where to start--the program in question was written in
C++, and my assembly is about as rusty as the undercarriage of my 15
year-old-car. :-)
In a discussion I was having with David Noon, he mentioned that he had
experienced problems getting LINK386 to handle Borland-produced objects. He
successfully compiled & linked my code using Watcom tools however. I may not
spend too much time on this, and have a go at downloading Open Watcom.
