 That's true +/-. You can link functions that are in 'C' libraries, but you 
_must_ extract they from the .lib to an .obj before you try to use them. Many 
functions can't be full extracted because you must extract the function, and 
all function that this function calls ( confused ? me too :-) ).

 Yes.

 What ? I don't known PUSCREEN function :-?

 You may avoid the use of 'C' functions, expecially complex functions like 
'printf', 'scanf', etc. Use 'C' functions to do hard work that need a lot of 
computing speed over a block of data; like computing CRCs, mixing data, etc. 
To avoid problems don't use 'C' functions and bigger data structures that can 
fill your stack.
 JG> I will declare all procedures, naturally, before execution.
 ;-)
 Ops! you must $LINK all .OBJs that your 'C' function uses.
