HS>There are differences between them.
CB>There are some differences, _but_ the differences are NOT relevant for
CB>a project like this.  They are the same language.  It's the 'frills'
CB>where they differ.  BC30 has better optimizations, utilities, etc.  BC
CB>is for the professional programmer who needs the extras, and TC30 is for
CB>the hobbiest who can get by without the extra utilities and better
CB>optimizations.  But the language they implement is identical.  They have
CB>the same parser, they have the same Borland extensions, etc.
if you actually have something interesting to contribute, then do it, don't 
tell me these meaningless things. As you gain experience and knowledge and as 
soon as you actually get a compiler you will realize that there ARE 
differences between the two.
HS>What did you expect? A magical fairy to make it compile in a
CB>different
HS>compiler? you have to change a few things, even if it means to edit
CB>an .asm
HS>file and replace a medium with large.
CB>Pffftt..  The program is _designed_ for the medium memory model.  Not
CB>for small, not for large, not for huge.  Regardless of the compiler, it
CB>is _designed_ for the medium language.  Switching to a very different
CB>compiler may require some changes to the code, but very unlikely to the
CB>memory model. Changing from BC30 to a related, dumbed down version of
CB>the compiler (ie: TC30) should require few to no changes.
ahahahaha, your so stupid.
"should require few to no changes", then why doesn't it compile smoothly with 
tc then? And just before you were asking "how do i compile it with tc?".
CB>As you gain some experience with computers and programming, you'll
CB>realize what should and should not happen / be needed, etc.
yeah carey, okay.. Thank you for you free informative lessons.
... I wish life had a scroll-back buffer.
