Thanks a bunch for the response, if is help[ful information.

The only reason I wrote that it would not compile the sample program was
to try to emphasize that it just would not compile anything, guess I
should explain more, looks like I'm guilty of not providnig enought
info,

Anyway, thanks for the reply, I'll bet what you suggest is it.

Since I posted I found that Fink has the 2.9.3 version of cc65 on the
unstable category and using FInk Commander I managed to complie and
install cc65 2.9.3 and get it to regularly compile several sample
programs.

Now I just need to discover how Fink compiles and installs the compiler
and libraries, so I can compile and install a later version.

Also, I need to find a reference as to what is needed in an include or
library file so I can use the AIM 65 as a target device.  I plan to use
the AIM 65 as a test enviornment and develop a program for an SBC (using
the same address space as the AIM 65) for a dedicated controller device.

Thanks again, and any help much appreciated.
