If I intend a > compiler for another language, I state that explicitly. Oops, sorry. This was really an unintended mixup with another thread. Context overspill :-). OK. Let me rephrase: There is exactly 1 low cost compiler, that from RR sofware. AFAIS there is no Linux target (which in my context of the discussion was always a given necessity). But one compiler hardly justifies plural. Or did I overlook other offers? I'm seriously intrested in the information apart from the discussion in this thread which is already a dead horse in my eyes. Let's stop flogging it. The compiler is not an issue, there is FSF Gnat. Regards -- Markus
