Greetings. I am new to the Net and to programming the II and am wondering if anyone out there has any recommendations for good compilers for my IIgs. I would like to look into versions of C, Pascal and assembly. Thanks. --- ! ! --- ! at (Spam?) lipo@vms.macc.wisc.edu

If you're looking for a good Pascal, and soon (If not already out) 'C' compier for the GS, take a look at Orca. It's worked out nicely for me.

They have recently announced TML Pascal II which will support GS/OS version 5.0 and provides a resource editor. It is suppose to be available in July, so I would wait for that version (it costs $49.95 to upgrade from previous versions). ==================================================================== J.

I've heard that TML Pascal is pretty good, but I wouldn't know. Also, if your programs need speed, go with assembly. While it is possible to write a really fast compiler on this machine, it is really painful and it hasn't been done. -- Syd Polk | Wherever you go, there you are. jazzman@claris.com | Let the music be your light.
