no... for a small machine Z80/6809 ect. Hmm time to
change the subject line.
How did that work back then to get software created for a new machine?
8080's had PLM compiled on a VAX or something along the same lines.
Hand-coded it, I would imagine. I've handcoded runtimes before for
compilers yet to be ported, created a cross-compiler, and had the compiler
compile itself for the target. Not exactly trivial, of course.
