A couple of people have made this suggestion but it is not relevant. I do not know whether it is intentional or accidental but gcc (and several other tools) seem to handle \n and \r\n as identical. (Even WordPad can do it.) My problem was that (for reasons as yet unknown) my gcc specs file did not include a definition for __declspec. Cheers, Stephen.
