I've borrowed one, but it is really driving I'm not sure which compiler you're talking about but there are only two C compilers available for the C-64: Power C (C-Power) by Spinnaker and Super C by Abacus. I've tried Super C and really didn't like it (I don't remember why though). Now I have Power C and it seems to be pretty nice. It seems to adhere to the K&R standard. I've heard of some of the bugs but they aren't that significant. Also, it seems that all the users on this news uses C-Power. So getting help and feedback is really a plus. Also, you mentioned the need of an assembler for the 6502/6510. Well, you're in luck. Mark Rinfret has written a 6502 assembler for the c64 in the C-Power environment. The program is public domain is comparable is many professional ones. Hope this has helped. Chikin Joe (jchikin@polyslo.UUCP) 61 N. Broad St. #216 San Luis Obispo, CA 93401 (805) 544-0907
