Does anyone in netland know where I can obtain C program language for a z100. My brother has a z100 and is a programmer. He would like a good programming language that is compatible with a z100, but I dont know where to start. Since he was kind enough to buy the system from me, I feel sort of obligated to help him out. Anyone know where I can obtain a good language? Thanks in advance. ____________________________________________________________________________ | MIKE RAUSTAD - ENCORE COMPUTER SYSTEMS - FT.

I used Turbo C 1.5 in line mode (the TCC compiler) for several months on my Z-100. I have not tried compiling Turbo C 2.0 on the Z-100, but I do know they changed the run time package slightly (they call the IBM format of the BIOS for the timer ticks) so that running Turbo 2.0 code on the Z-100 causes a wild interrupt. This can be fixed, since they give source to the startup routine, but I didn't bother. Note that not all of the runtime library supplied with Turbo 1.5 will run on a Z-100, for example I never even loaded the graphics library. Drew Derbyshire

From article <3151@infocenter.UUCP>, by mraustad@infocenter.UUCP (Mike Raustad): > > Does anyone in netland know where I can obtain C program language > for a z100. I use Mix C - the price fits ($19.95) and it seems to do what it is spposed to do. Microsoft C is my partner's choice, but he has more money to blow than I do. There apparently is a patch to allow Turbo C to run on the '100, but I haven't tried it. Most any C for MS-DOS will work except those that do full screen stuff during compiles. I can't use Mix's debugger, and my buddy can't use Codeview. I'd go with Mix.

My brother has a z100 and is a programmer. He would like I have been using AZTEC C on the 100 with good results. As others have noted, you can't use the I*M PC specfic functions, but the rest works OK. As a matter of fact, by writing/compiling generic MSDOS code on the 100, it has the advantage of running without recompiling on the inferior type MSDOS machines.
