So any comments and suggestions? >=20 I think it's a great idea. But... Can you extend it to be available to the Forth layer. That is, add a command to ficl.c that calls your code. I would very much like to be able to compute the CRC32 of a file from within Forth and get the results back on the stack. --=20 Devin _____________ The information contained in this message is proprietary and/or confidentia= l.
