I think this is now sorted. I've worked through a number of issues, and can compile,build and execute a VOLE program with Turbo Explorer.

Am hoping to release STLSoft 1.9.7 asap - probably in next two days; at the w/e at the latest.

Will try and post a patch for VOLE users tonight/tomorrow.

Cheers

Matt

Please feel free to hassle me if I'm late in delivering. I've got a *lot* on my plate at the moment, but doing this is a relatively small effort now, so I should be able to do it in a few hours, as long as it doesn't slip off my to-do list.

So, hassle away if you don't hear from me asap.

Cheers

Matt
