Tandy sells it, probably now only through Express Order. I believe the C Users Group has a 6809 Small C, but that of course has the various limitations of Small C--I don't know whether it supports floating point, for example. James Jones

Ideally I would like to find a cross compiler, possibly source, to run in a unix environment.

The small-c compiler comes with source, and can be compiled under unix (although you have to look carefully for one wich includes a 6809 back end. You could even try the Motorola bbs, and use the 68hc11 smallc as a starting point to build your own. There are also some commercially available ones. We use INTROL and are very happy with it. (However a bit expensive, as I recall: $3000 for a 2 user unix version) -- Henk Dijkstra || domain: henk@hgatenl.hobby.nl Hobbynet User Group, Netherlands. || Tel: (+31) 3240-61683 (Voice)

I used to have it, but not any longer. Does someone else still have a copy of it floating around? I would like to have a copy of it, myself. David J. Halko

I have seen some "small c " versions, but not any fullfledged compilers. Also, I have not seen a small c compiler that generates the "PIC" ( position independent code) required by os9. In simtel20 <MSDOS.C>:mc20.zip is a c-compiler for the pc which says that there are versions for other microprocessors, for a modest price . Clarence Wilkerson

I know enough French to get by but the price (free) sounds good to me. -- +-----------------------------------------------------------------------+ | Gary Harris | Motorola Inc. | | motcid!harrisg@uunet.uu.net | Phone: | | uunet!motcid!harrisg | (708) 632-6999 |

The "commented in French" program I saw was a 6809 _assembler_, not a C compiler. I might still have a copy sitting around, though I did some house-cleaning recently, and it probably disappeared. 6809 assemblers are available from lots of sources, though (an assembler for 6809/z80/6502/etc was recently posted to alt.sources). Introl used to sell a C compiler for OS9/6809, and may still have one available. I don't know much about Introl's products firsthand, but I've heard that their compilers are pretty good, though a bit pricey. I've been working on Small-C for OS9/6809. The version I have now seems to work pretty well, though with the standard limitations of Small-C (no data types other than int, char, pointers, and 1-dimensional arrays). Generates assembly output for Microware's RMA assembler right now, though it could be altered for almost any assembler without too much trouble. It will be available on Delphi's OS9 SIG soon. - Tim Kientzle kientzle@math.berkeley.edu ucbvax!math!kientzle
