Is there a version of GCC running on 386 PCs? And if so, which UNIX are you using? (e.g., XENIX, Interactive, etc.) Thanks. Mark Streich streich@tigger.colorado.edu

(e.g., XENIX, Interactive, etc.) I've been using gcc for some time with microport unix 386 (3.0e). I don't have the source: I obtained the binary from John Plocher at uport but got it via floppy and so didn't have room for the source. I've had it about a year, I think: I'm sure it's not the most recent version, and I don't know how much work it was to make it run on the 386. The version I have works quite well. Rarely there's code that requires cc to compile. There are one or two identifiable bugs in this version. As I recall it fails to handle expressions that combine int and char variables; you have to write i=c and then use i (which it does fine). Casting the char does not work. I would expect this version to work with any unix 386. It must be around 600 Mb in overall size. -- Norman Kohn | ...ddsw1!nvk Chicago, Il. | days/ans svc: (312) 650-6840 | eves: (312) 373-0564
