Hi Neil,

    Well spotted! I meant the MSDOS executable program. :-)

    The syntax error is just caused by the typedef. That version of Cdecl
doesn't know about typedef. Earlier versions did not even know about void.
:-) There are later versions which I don't have. Maybe I'd better get one,
but if I remember right the source uses yacc and lex, and though I do have
MSDOS/Windows versions of both, it seems a lot of trouble to go to for
something I so seldom use.

    Sorry this and the previous took so long to reach you - broken link.

Best Wishes,
Bill.
