I wish to use my IBM PC, running MS-DOS, to develop programs for
8080/8085/Z80 systems (I'm presently using a Z80 CP/M-80 system to do
this).  There are many compilers and assemblers targeting
8080/8085/Z80's, but most run under CP/M-80.

1) Does anyone know of cross-compilers (C, Pascal, etc) or
cross-assemblers to run under MS-DOS which produce 8080/8085/Z80
object code?

2) Another approach is to buy a "Baby Blue" or similar board, and thus
convert the CP/M-80 compiler or assembler to run under MS-DOS.  I am
investigating this angle as well -- does anyone have experience with
the "Baby Blue" card?
