Multilink is *very* old :) i used multilink way back in 1999 - and, yes, it was wonderful in providing multi-segment support to a few of my games *g* i think i was using 0.2 back then *g* - under solaris but, really, it has died. development has stopped; and, prc-tools has superceeded the limitation that existed in 0.5.0 - it was quite easy to upgrade to use multigen and the new build-prc. remember - i have done it :) not many users have even heard of multilink *g* --- Aaron Ardiri [EMAIL PROTECTED] CEO - CTO +46 70 656 1143 Mobile Wizardry http://www.mobilewizardry.com/ -- For information on using the Palm Developer Forums, or to unsubscribe, please see http://www.palmos.com/dev/support/forums/
