I don't really use a cross compiler, but I find running the 11's cc in compatability mode does the trick. Of course this means you need as, as2, ld, c0, c1, c2 also lying around somewhere as well. I created a heirarchy .../pdp/... where I put all the binaries. Then I just enter the 2.8bsd csh in compatability mode. I find it an easy way to maintain everything on one machine. Lou Salkind

Date: 12 Jun 1982 17:45:11 EDT (Saturday) I would think that the Ritchie PDP-11 V7 compiler OR the PCC V7 PDP-11 compiler would work just fine as a cross-compiler running under VAX/UNIX. All you need is the V7 source license, I guess (or maybe the binaries would work in compatibility mode??).

The C compiler used on v7 UNIX would work if there was an available copy of an 11/70 assembler available on a VAX. Unfortunately, the assembler provided for 11/70 UNIX systems is written in assembler language. This of course will not run through the VAX assembler and thereby you are stuck. If anybody does know of an existing cross assembler that will compile 11/70 code on a VAX, I am very interested in learning of how to obtain it. Glen Gordon BTL-IN ...ihnss!inuxc!gordon
