Dear Net A while back there was a discussion here about the feasibility of porting GNU C to the transputer family, but at that time noone admitted to having done it. What is the situation now? I'd really like to use C++, but of course, if gcc were ported, then g++ wouldn't be that tough really would it? Andy

As I recall Richard Stallman had this to say: "Don't do it - it'll require too much work" ... or words to that effect.
