In article <C17L6C.CEI@javelin.sim.es.com> WPORTER@130.187.170.178 (WENDELL PORTER) writes: >Does GCC exist for the Macintosh, and if so, where can I find it? Uh oh... I can just hear FSF now... "Slowly I turned... Inch by inch, step by step I crept..." But that's another humorous skit. Unless you can find a way to get apple to 1) stop making software patents, 2) stop suing on the basis of look-and-feel and 3) make a commitment that they won't ever do it again, there will be no ports of GCC to the Macintosh supported by GCC's authors. Even if apple does all three above, there _still_ might not be an officially supported port. To FSF: _Exactly_ what else will it take?
