Hello, people,
this is an important question, at least for me. I am in desperate search
for a compiler, preferably Modula-2 or C, WITH SOURCES, that i can get up and
running on an Z280. The plan is to develop an experimental OS which should have
multi-tasking capabilities. I read that the Q/C Compiler had been sold with
source. Is that true ? Can i still buy it ? Can it easily be modified to
support the extended Z280-features?
The pd-compilers i know of have their limitations concerning data structures.
I think, it is possible to modify small-C for the Z280, but it would be
lot of work to support multi-dim arrays, structs etc.
For the modern home computers like atari, amiga or pc's, there are pd-compilers
available (even modula-2), so why not for CP/M?
Thank you for your hints,
Ruediger.

There was a version of the "Turbo" Modula 2 compiler for the 64180 that used some of its features. Clarence Wilkerson

>There was a version of the "Turbo" Modula 2 compiler for >the 64180 that used some of its features. I have it, at least the Z80 version, and it is quite good. The 180 version is for the SB180, but might work on a generic 180 or 280. If you want to buy it, let me know. $75. I don't have the manual any more, but any good Modula-2 manual should work. Marc
