Your old blah blah 4Ghz? I am using a Duron 900... :-))

Nobody wants the impossible... but at least what *is* possible...
Anyway, the majority of my code is for small CPUs (with 128 bytes of ram 
there is not so much malloc() you can do...).
And on PCs, gambas manages memory perfectly (or so it seems), without 
having to pay for source inconsistencies. True, there is no malloc() in 
gambas: who needs it?

I can't see two modes for this. My best thought about compilers is the 
Borland Delphi 3 pascal compiler. It compiled something 4000 lines per 
second on pentium II, which means that for an average project you didn't 
even notice the compiling time. And I never found a bug in the compiler, 
or language. Up to now, I didn't find something so fast, solid, 
reliable. But I leaved the windows world, so I must adapt myself to 
something else.

And this is the best way to learn - when you have a problem to solve.

But back to your problem: why you talked about the Tag property? It 
seems to me that that does not gets in so much?
