I'm just curious if MPW CFront (AT&T's thingie that converts c++
to c) spits out stuff that the MPW IIgs C compiler can handle, and, if so,
has Apple built a //gs class library? If not (to either question), why not?
And is it possible that in the future Apple will make this workable?
Also, do folks have comments on the MPW IIgs cross development stuff
in general? How is the C compiler, and does is support at least a subset of
the ANSI spec? For that matter, does anyone have comments on how CFront
works? (Pardon me if that's been beaten to death in c.s.m.p - just email if
it has)

It's also very easy to get CFront output that contains way too many levels of parentheses for MPW IIgs C to deal with. -- --David A.
