TO ALL MEGAMAX C USERS:
  

Version 2.1 (available after June 15th) of the MegaMax C compiler has been
announced.  This version includes a number of bug fixes to the compiler,
linker, librarian, disassembler, library and header files.  To receive the
updates send $15.00 with both your Megamax diskettes to:

		Megamax, Inc		(214 987-4931)
		Box 851521
		Richardson, TX 75085


Also anounced, in the "MegaMax C Newsletter Vol. 1, No. 1", is a symbolic
debugger similar to dbx which will be available for $99.00 sometime in
August.

A Megamax c -Unix cross compiler is now available.  I quote from the
newsletter:

"June 1, 1985 we will release Megamax C running under a UNIX enviornment.
Developers will be able to create Macintosh applications using the power of
the UNIX operating system.  The system is comprised of all programs on the
Macintosh version of Megamax C with the addition of a UNIX based resource
compiler and a down-load desk accessory for the Macintosh.  Price is $3000."

The newletter also includes Tech Notes on "Rolling you own ROM calls", an
analysis of the small number of overlays one can use with the linker, a
discussion on ROM routines dealing with boolean variables, and information
relating to string "STR" resources.

All of this if you sent in your little registration sheet....  Not bad.  I
sure hope these people keep these newsletters coming.

I have no affiliation with Megamax INC. (other than the fact that I bought
their compiler).  I am passing this information on as a public service.
