- It has to do with your installation of the compiler. Go back to the
- floppies, and use the install program. It actually puts a hard coded path
- into the binary, I think. You can make an Aztec: somewhere in your HD, then
- ask it to install to that dir. Then it will still work if you move it by.
-
- An interesting side note is that the versions available from their bbs
- seem to be without this feature. They seem to correctly discern where they
- are.
