Keywords: C Compiler Sources UniPress Message-ID: <290@enlog.Wichita.NCR.COM> Date: 11 Jul 88 15:50:47 GMT Organization: NCR Corporation, Wichita, Kansas Lines: 24 I recently purchased the Minix C compiler sources from UniPress Software. I haven't opened the diskette package yet because the reference manual doesn't make it quite clear what is actually on the diskettes. What pieces of source code are actually on the diskettes? The manual (on page 6.1) says "(The Minix compiler sources do not include the cgg component. cgg is included in the full ACK system.)" GREAT!! The code generator component source is not on the diskette? It seems like it would be rather tough to port the compiler to another machine without having access to the code generator source. By the way, the ACK (Amsterdam Compiler Kit) which does include the cgg component costs a measly $9950.00. Has anyone bought the sources, looked at the diskettes, and tried to modify the compiler to generate 68000 code? (without using the ACK) Thanks in advance. -- --------------------------- ...tIM dAVIS (Tim.Davis@Wichita.NCR.COM)
