Re: 8 char filename problem...

["Edward Byard" <ed at edwardbyard dot co dot uk>]

Hi,

I solved the problem (basically the version of GCC used to compile for the
h8300 was very very old).

I have updated it and it now compiles with a newer, albeit still old,
version. And now I have different problems I won't go into here....

Regards,
Ed
