Hi, Does there exist a Pascal compiler for use under minix? (I use ST Minix 1.1). Jan Joris Vereijken The Netherlands forchk@hlerul53.bitnet

There is a Pascal compiler for the IBM PC from UniPress and Transmediair. That includes the source, but you'd have to adapt it to the 68000. Andy Tanenbaum (ast@cs.vu.nl)

Or is the ACK setup not that nice? ****************************************************************************** Ronald van der Pol DOMAIN: tnsgvdp@dutrun.uucp UUCP: ...uunet!mcvax!hp4nl!dutrun!tnsgvdp

In theory, I could have generated a Pascal compiler from ACK for the 68000 and thus eliminated all the work. Unfortunately, I just don't have the time. (Libraries, a.out formats, etc. all have to be looked at). Sorry. Andy Tanenbaum (ast@cs.vu.nl)
