Are you using a Coco III or Coco II?  I'm having a heck of a time trying
to get the compiler to run with a J&R ramdisk because of the memory
limitation on a Coco II.  And there's no chance when I try to use the
"real" terminal logged in as an additional user.  I admit it, I'm hopelessly
spoiled and can't use the coco's slow disk drives, plastic keyboard or
32 character lines.  The Microware C is very complete but it's just too much
for the little computer.  If I don't find a version soon I'm going to port
my FLEX version of Small-C to OS9.
