I used to use Greenhills C on a MicroVAX II runing Ultrix for ST development. I wrote some libc code that worked with the Atari GEMDOS/BIOS calls and used the Greenhills 68000 cross compiler to produce modules and then I had a program that could convert to Atari GEMDOS object/executable format. The cross tools I used were a hack. It was kind of a hassle and as soon as got Micro C-Shell working on the ST, I started using the ST directly. Today, I think it's easier to use Mark Williams C (with Micro C-Shell of course :-) on the ST directly, if you like a good Unix-like devlopment environment. For me, the advantages of a "real" Unix system did not out weigh the problems of trasnferring and debugging on the ST. But if you're interested, I could probably dig out the stuff I used to use. -- David Beckemeyer | "Yuh gotta treat people jes' like yuh Beckemeyer Development Tools | do mules.
