No, I didn't use either of those.  There wasn't much to the program apart
from that
structural bit I posted before.  I was pretty much just trying to get a COFF
file
from MASM to work with GCC.  It works fine for simple little things like the
bulk
of the work I do in assembly language.  Beyond  that, it may be a good idea
to run
the module through Lawrence's converter.
