I find this hard to believe.   It took 2.5 years to get a Fortran
compiler for our OS-9/68K system.  As far as I know, Microware is
the only supplier of compilers, so if they don't have it, you are
stuck.   Also, most of the little  utilities  which are available
for MS-DOS don't seem exist for OS-9.  I would be much happier if
I could have equivalents for just the Norton Utilities and CED (a
command line editing/history utility).
