Does anyone know of a good PD 68k C compiler to which sources are available? I've looked at Sozoban C (too cryptic) and Matthew Brandt's CC68k (doesn't handle large files) and I'm looking for something else. Ohyeah, I've also looked at SmallC as well. Any pointers to any sources greatly appreciated! tm@well.sf.ca.us

There is the massive GCC-1.39, and also a rewrite-extension of one of Brandt's compilers by Chris van Wullen (sic) available from the MINIX archives at plains.nodak.edu. I've gotten both Sozabon and C68-III to compile and run on a PC with Turbo C, and on SUNS. Clarence Wilkerson

Aside from Sozobon, you could look at "Mark Johnson" C which is freely available (possibly public domain -- I can't recall) for the Atari ST. "TOS" (the inherent OS of the Atari ST) is CP/M-like or MS-DOS-like, so if you're planning on a port to a fairly straight forward OS then these are the compilers to look at. -- Jim Omura, 2A King George's Drive, Toronto, (416) 652-3880 lsuc!jimomura Byte Information eXchange: jimomura

There is also the Amiga PDC compiler. It is available for FTP at: 128.174.5.59 ux1.cso.uiuc.edu ux1 It is in the directory amiga/misc/PDC. Paul Petersen and I put it together a few years ago from a cross-compiler started by Matthew Brandt. It is a capable K&R compiler, with just a few omissions (bit field support perhaps the most significant) but also a few handy extras such as function prototypes and pre-compiled header files. I have also modified a copy of it to generate assembly for the Motorola's assembler on UNIX. It also has a nice set of ANSI libraries, but much of this code is Amiga-specific. < Lionel ----------- Lionel D.
