As requested, we are broadcasting this reply to the network.

3L has a ROM Configurer package which enables embedded systems to be
configured and prepared for burning into ROM.

The package is compatible with all 3L parallel compilers: C, Fortran and Pascal.

The ROM Configurer works in a similar way to the other 3L configurers, with
the configuration file describing the target transputer network of processors,
links and connections.

The code that comes out of the compiler and linker _is_ position-independent,
as is the output from the configurer.

Please let me know if you would like a copy of the Software Product
Description or if you have any other specific questions.
