D! grumble, borland specific stuff. Maybe I'm tackling this wrong by trying
to massage it to DJGPP, seeing as I've been given a BC compiler, and that
the program was targeted for that environment, I ought to work with it there
until I get my C skills back up to able to port it over.
Thanks for the HTTP.
