Summary: Try GEM, get PD software from net.micro.atari

Have you looked at GEM?  The price is good ($50 for desktop and GEM,
14.95 for programmers reference guide).  The early developers in
net.micro.atari did their initial developement on IBM compatibles.
I have been told that most of the Atari source (C source, that is)
runs on IBM/GEM compatibles.  Note that GEM compatible is a subset
of IBM compatible, so if GEM is available for that machine, you can
use GEM 'C' source code.  Appearantly GEM eats a lot of memory, so
make sure you've got 640K (too bad that's the limit).
