[comp.unix.aux] GNU tools on Mac OS?

dlw@aspen.IAG.HP.COM (David Williams) (03/27/90)

Has anyone ported the GNU environment to the Mac OS?

        - gnuemacs
        - gcc
        - g++
        - gdb
        - bison
        - flex
        - grep
        - gnu smalltalk


        etc.

It would be a much cheaper way to end up having C++ on one's machine as well
as some other nice tools. Could Think C be a starting point to moving this
stuff to the mac...FSF's opinions of Apple notwithstanding?

Just curious,

David

	Some of these (emacs, gcc, ...) are on apple.com for anonymous ftp.

In response to my query about GNU availability on the Mac OS

Yes, but they only work under A/UX not the Macintosh OS! I want
versions of GNU tools on the Macintosh side not the Unix side of the
house.
