[comp.os.cpm] Anyone compiled XLISP under MIX C before ?

secrist@msdsws.ENET.DEC.COM (Garbage In, Gospel Out) (05/07/91)

I just bought MIX C for CP/M on 8" and am attempting to build XLISP with
it.  Does anyone remember what changes it required or which options you
took ?  Using Aztec (which I don't have for CP/M) I believe there are some
'.ASM files for the I/O, so I'm not sure about taking those set of options.
I am laboring over V1.2, but will consider V1.1.

Mix C seems to win price/performance wise, per other notes seen here.

The talk about MIX C in this discussion reminded me that I'd meant to call them up about a quetion I had.

I asked about getting the CP/M disks for Mix C since I already own the MSDOS version.  They told me that I could do it at the upgrade price... $5 + $2 s&h.  And that the reverse was true too!  If you have the CP/M version, you can get the MSDOS version for $5.  Of course, this isn't true for their ANSI C Compiler, PowerC, but it's only $19.95 too, so it's another great deal

So that means you could have the same compiler for both CP/M and MSDOS for under around $30 including shipping and handling.  Not a bad deal....
