[comp.sys.amiga] C Compiler recommendations

fc@lexicon.com (Frank Cunningham) (03/15/89)

If a guy knew enough about programming in DSP microcode, assembly
language, and C to get paid on a regular basis for perpetration,
but did not consider himself a designer of elegant structures (etc)
and if this guy wanted to develop
(1) an urban environment game with reasonably good graphics & sound
(2) MIDI editing tools (maybe) ,
and he realized that this is likely to be a multi-year project given
his comittment to date,

which C compiler for a hard-disk equipped A2000 would be a better choice ?
I would initially consider the following important, but would like to
learn the priorities of experienced users.

- comprehensive working environment easily installed on hard disk
- freedom from obscure bugs
- reasonable efficiency of final code (speed and size)
- good documentation
- light-speed is not important to me
	/* this is a hobby, job#2 is sound-recording */
- why should I use an editor other than mg (I use GnuEmacs at job#1)
- cost

Please post or E-mail as you see fit. Thanks, Frank.
