Why use the AT&T compiler when the gnu C compiler is available. CHeck the copy write though - some comercial uses may not be allowed by the gnu copywrite (like you cannot sell the results). We have used gcc and gnu-emacs quite sucessfully on an AT&T 6386 tower with Sys V, 3.2 rel 2.1 at the Soil Conservation Service for 9 months now. We are not going to be selling anything of what we write and souce is also available to users who want it, so we do not think we are vilating their copywrite. chad price price@fergvax.unl.edu
