Has anyone tried to do cross-development for the Mac on a Spectre?
I'm trying to use THINK C on an ST + GCR. The compiler works fine but the
source debugger freezes up.
The best thing about THINK C is the source debugger and the idea of having
to go back to print statements is really distasteful knowing that there's
an alternative. Not to mention that it slows down debugging tremendously.
Does anyone have an idea wether there's a chance that the debugger could
work with a bit of hacking on the Spectre code or is it a lost cause?
Doug W@gadgets seemed to indicate on GENIE that the Mac debuggers are using
vectors that the Spectre needs to work at all on the ST. 
Does it mean that no hack known to mankind will get this to work?
