What about all the cross compilers that ran on
PDP-11's?
Good point; by coincidence, I just found the stuff about the 68K
cross-compiler from Alcyon (in San Diego) which we used at Proteon;
it ran on an -11/73 running Ultrix.
According to the ad sheet, it also ran on VAXen, HP9000s, Textronix 8560s,
etc; OS's were various Unix flavours, VMS, VersaDOS, and Regulus.
I have the man pages for it, the assembler and linker, the c.out format it
produced, etc if those are any use/interest.

The CP/M-68K 1.0x source distribution at
http://www.uxpro.com/cpm/www.cpm.z80.de/source.html includes a VAX/VMS
distribution of Digital Research's 68K cross development software for
VAX/VMS. After unpacking the source distribution, look in v102/cross for
that distribution. Excerpt from v102/cross/install.doc:
This document describes the installation and execution
procedures for the Digital Research 68000 cross development
software for VAX/VMS. This software includes the C compiler,
assembler, linker, archiver, symbol table print utility, object
module size utility, and S-Record conversion utility. These
tools execute in much the same fashion as they do under CP/M-68K,
as documented in the CP/M-68K Programmer's Guide.

Anybody out here tried it?
I like to set up a cpm68k system, and doing that on a VAX would be much
more fun ;-)
Cheers!

Looks like there are a couple hundred .COM files in the source archive...
# cat ./v101/c/preproc/make.com
$ set noon
$ set def [steve.cpm68k.c.preproc]
$ copy machine.68k machine.h
$ cc68 cexpr
$ cc68 lex
$ cc68 macro
$ cc68 main
$ cc68 preproc
$ cc68 util
$ @reload
Definitely DCL, definitely VMS.

Alcyon as in Regulus? Pretty sure they got it from Green Hills. And
Green Hills is still around.

'steve' == Steve Williams
this is the Alcyon C cross-compiler

I must have found the problem a while ago.
It's already up under bits/Alcyon

I have a source tape. I'm trying to figure out why modern tar doesn't understand
it.
