Hi there,
If i remember correctly somebody on the net spoke of a GNU C++
compiler some months ago.
1.) Does such a thing exist?
2.) Is the source code available (as usual for GNU software)?
3.) Does a port for the Atari ST exist?
4.) Are commercial C++ compilers for the ST available?
Any hints?

I've recently gotten gcc v 1.36 for my 1040 ST. Along with it I got the following g++-readme.text file. Hope it isn't too discouraging. I do not have g++! The file came from terminator.cc.umich.edu. Before, I get flooded with e-mail my gcc came from dsrgsun.ces.cwru.edu. That's all I know. Cheers, Ralph p.s. signature at end. -*- Mode: Text -*- This is a very preliminary posting of G++ for the Atari ST. It's known to be buggy, but I figured I'd post it anyhow, as a lot of people have asked for it. G++ needs LOTS of memory. Don't bother trying it on less that a Mega 2; for large programs you'll need a Mega 4. Unpack all the Zoos, (there should be 4; g++-exec, g++lib, g++lib2, and g++-gnulib). All of these were packed in the \GNU\ directory, so pathnames are relative to there. Look for a GNU.G file; and look for the extra env vars that G++ will expect to see. Try building some of the sample programs in the TEST directory. Sorry about the brevity of the instructions; perhaps we'll do a better job of documenting how to get started later.
