I got this working. I can send you the Makefile I used, if you like.

It's on pub/msx/archive/lharclhx.pma, but maybe a better version can be found
on The Ultimate MSX FAQ. See signature. (In the fileformats section)

Do it like this: on a new line type:
~r file
And the file called 'file' will be included!
Oh, C-freaks on Unix, try this beauty:
float
c,
C ,x,X,k,K=0.5, _=
2;char o,O,Q,l;i()
{k=x+=_;X=C;o=96;while
( 4>(c=k*k)+X*X&&--o){k=
2*k*X+x; X=X*X+C-c;}}main(){char
I[99]="\040,m,`;b|~P#T`:dl\033[H";
98[I]=0;while(3>((_*=K<0.2?1.1:1)>1e-3?_*=
0.970:(K-=_)))for(Q=-11;Q<12;){for
(O=-39;O <40;x=_*2*Q-(_-1)/2*K,C
= (K/2*K-1.3)*(1-_)+O*_,
i(),l=o&3,i(),I[O+++58
]=I[l*4+o%4]);puts
( I+(9<-++Q?16: 19
))
;};};
use
gcc file ; ./a.out to run it!
