[net.wanted] C compiler needed for C/PM80

dyck@alberta.UUCP (Terry Dyck) (02/05/85)

I am looking for a GOOD C compiler for an
Osborne1. The only one I have been able 
to find had a price tag of $450. Any 
information on one you have used and where
I can order it from would be greatly
appriciated.

            thanx in advance

I have been using Software Toolworks C-80 compiler.  The cost is low,
about $50 for the compiler and $30 additional for the math pac which I
highly recommend.  The output of the compiler is assembly source code
for their supplied assembler, Macro-80 or RMAC.  It is ALMOST a full
implementation of the "C" language with some minor limitations that
have never really bothered me.  There are some bugs but not many.  I'd
say it is well worth the price and Software Toolworks has been a
pleasure to deal with.  

Their address is:

	The Software Toolworks
	15233 Ventura Boulevard, Suite 1118
	Sherman Oaks, California  91403
