As someone pointed out the last time this thread aired, why not take the source for the Sozobon C compiler for Atari/Amiga and use it as a base instead? GCC would be too much work. I have looked at Sozobon C and porting it would be many orders of magnitude easier. You can get Sozobon C from any comp.sources.atari-st archives, and I think (I may be wrong) that it's on one of the Amiga archive sites available via anonymous ftp (I forget where). (I've forwarded this to comp.sys.ibm.pc, I think that's a more appropriate place for this discussion). Thomas V.
