(which leads to the >question about configureable stack- and heapplacement again :=P) I would like to see configurable heap and stack placement too... I think the heap is now defined by the BSS area isn't it, and is hardcoded somewhere in the library? I'm no power user like groepaz, but I did run into this issue when I wrote a little application using the extended memory of the Atari (a window at $4000-7FFF) I had to maneuver my code, bss and rw segments all over the place and I thought that I would potentially be having problems malloc'ing memory since I had to put the bss segment in a small area of ram. I'm assuming that this is the type of thing you are talking about? ¯ Shawn Jefferson ---------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe from the list send mail to majordomo_at_musoftware.de with the string "unsubscribe cc65" in the body(!) of the mail.
