Herr Dr. Roepcke -
Under 5.0b5, about which I guess it's Ok to speak in public because
it;s a _public_ pre-release, I get:
.
.
.
Execute was OK with 37 Tagnames...
Execute was OK with 38 Tagnames...
& END
^
% Program code area full.
Execute failed with 39Tagnames!!!
under OpenVMS 7.1, and somewhat more spectacularly with 32 tagnames under
DU4.0B.
Interestingly, on a PowerMacintosh running MacOS 7.6, I get:
Execute failed with 51Tagnames!!!
but I don't think I can tell you what version I'm running there, because
5.0B5 isn't the pre-release for MacOS ;-)
So if nothing relating to structures is "improved" before the final
release of 5.0, getting a PowerMac may be your only choice.
By the way "tstr" must be changed to "str to make your codelet work.
Best wishes,
Joe Gurman
