Does anyone know of any language that was made for an Apple II (excluding the GS) that compiled the program into TRUE assembly? (IE: Not external runtime routines, etc.??) If so, what were these languages and who made them? thanks, Roby -- Roby Sherman | rsherman@mthvax.cs.miami.edu //Interealm\\ |-------------------------------------------------------------- P.O.

It generated very large programs, two to three times the size of the original. I do not know who made, but I am pretty sure they have been out of business for several years. Ther is no prodos version that I know of. Micol Advanced Basic might compile to a stand alone SYS or BIN file, contact Ronl here at pnet91, he can tell you more than I.

Micol Advanced BASIC uses a runtime library, as does almost every compiler. It is rare to find a _high-level_ compiler which compiles directly to machine language without any sort of run-time module. Please send all replies to: INet: zoo.toronto.edu!generic!pnet91!ronl or : ronl@pnet91.cts.com
