It's called 64TRAN, and it's written by Trident software. from the little time I played with it, I can say that it generates pretty compact code, if you don't try using libraries. (If I remember corectly , a null program was about 200 bytes, and generally, programs were quite slow. But, a demo program that used a string library went up to 70 blocks ). Code is quite was too. Don't expect the compiler to support complex numbers or other advanced feature Udi finkel@taurus.bitnet
