I was just thinking that perhaps Watcom had more support in it. As for the
PAUSE key, I unfortunetly got an extended keyboard (I mean EXTENDED, F1 -
F30) from a local defense contractor here, and I guess budget cuts require
that you can not have a PAUSE key. ;) I'll see what I can do (possibly
install EMX\GCC on one of the other computers with a pause key).
