Hi Paul,

I got the ship generator to compile and to run by:

    1) Setting the initial allocation (INIT_ALLOC) to 2000.
    2) Setting the definition for REAL to float from double.
    3) Padding out the tbl_ent structure to 128 bytes so I could declare
       the pointer to the table as a huge pointer.

I am in the process of testing the program (compiled under MSC 6.0a) now,
and will post a copy to sunbane.engrg.uwo.ca as soon as I'm satisfied that
I haven't missed anything that will potentially byte me on the butte!
(Misspellings intentional!)  <grin>

The table takes up 256K of memory as I currently have it configured, and
should run on any 640K machine.  I'll include a readme file with the
differnces and machine minimums before I post it.  Looks like a neat piece
of work otherwise.

P.S.  I'll make this available for download on my bbs when I'm done if
      that's alright with you.
