  ORCA is ORCA whether you run under the ORCA.SYS16 shell or under the
GNO shell. I presume you have the manuals for ORCA :)

  As to there not being a manpage for "compile", well, that's also
documented in the ORCA manual.

  C 1.1 used a "SYSTEM" directory instead of a "Shell" directory. Change
the prefix settings in your gshrc file.

   Which symbols are unresolved?  BTW, there might be an incompatibility
with C 1.1's libraries and the GNO 2.0 replacement ORCALIB.

  I _highly_ recommend you upgrade immediately to C 2.0.X.
