        The compilation options defined whenever i use @BUILD-SLANG.COM 
are :

cc/decc/prefix=all/nomember/DEFINE=(ACCESS_AUTH,MULTINET,_DECC_V4_SOURCE,__SOCKE
T_TYPEDEFS,USE_SLANG,__VMS_CURSES)/INCLUDE=([],[-],[-.WWW.Library.Implementation
],[.chrtrans],[-.slang.src])

        so the USE_SLANG is there for sure.

        Hum ... Indeed. Let me see if there was a pilot error somewhere. I'll
start again from scratch and will let you know.
