Re: [Objc-discuss] Could you add the Pelles C compiler backend?

[<st...@PA...>]

Thanks for the suggestion.

http://www.smorgasbordet.com/pellesc/

looks interesting.

There is already a driver and Makefiles for the LCC tools (LCC,LCCLNK,LCCLIB etc.).

I'll see to make a version of Portable Object Compiler for PellesC.

That being said, the most natural environment for Portable Object Compiler is UNIX.

There is also a CYGWIN version;
