OK, what's your credit card number?? Seriously, we are hard at work with state-of-the-art compiler technology (including full ANSI-compatibility as well as current K&R-compatibility so as not to break existing code). I will only get as specific with dates as to say "later this year", so please don't call or e-mail asking for a date. This is a very high priority right now, so it will be out as soon as we are able to ship a solid product. We will certainly let people know when the product is available for ordering or upgrades. Also, along the same lines, we will be releasing our Polytron utilities shortly, including Polytron Version Control System and PolyMake. These may make porting Unix code somewhat easier, especially where makefiles are concerned. -- ################################################################################ # Bill Sheppard -- bills@microware.com -- {uunet,sun}!mcrware!mwca!bill # # Microware Systems Corporation --- OS-9: Seven generations beyond __/_!! # #######Opinions expressed are my own, though you'd be wise to adopt them!#######
