ML>compare.  So far, 1.2 seems to come out better: smaller executable

Hi Murray,

The run-time library for 1.2 is alleged to be much faster than that for
1.1, especially during its environmental initialisation.

ML>Also, finding that
ML>1.2 is fussier about following the rules; not necessarily at compile
ML>time but certainly at run time.  I'm still trying to figure out why
ML>one of my VIO API calls works fine under 1.1 but sometimes (but not
ML>always) produces an error return under 1.2.

Well, that could be any of a dozen things ...

ML>Guess I'll have to learn about the debugger.

I remember when PUT DATA; was the debugger.

Regards

Dave
