[net.micro.atari] --- Action! VS. C

nep.pgelhausen@AMES-VMSB.ARPA (01/04/86)

I have used C/65.  My big problem w/ it is that it does not compile
into binary, but it produces MAC/65 assembly code.  It is nice to have
this OPTION, but not to be forced into it.  DISK SPACE GOES FAST!.  
Forget about the extra time to assemble it! Unless you have a hard
disk it does not seem worth it.

Deep Blue C (from APX) produces a small intermediate code file (similar
to the p-code used by UCSD Pascal systems...but it is a c-code I guess)
that needs to be run with an interpreter package.  It is not as bad
as it sounds, but Action! is definately faster.

So long for now,
