Tucker Taft's company, SofCheck, has an Ada-to-ANSI-C compiler that should produce C that your C compiler could process. STT's e-mail address is stt-at-sofcheck-dot-com. (I haven't noted him posting here recently, so I've obsured the address.) RR Software has a 16-bit DOS compiler available, if that will run on your target. Randy Brukardt is the contact there (randy@rrsoftware.com). -- Jeff Carter "Sir Robin the-not-quite-so-brave-as-Sir-Lancelot, who had nearly fought the Dragon of Angnor, who nearly stood up to the vicious Chicken of Bristol, and who had personally wet himself at the Battle of Badon Hill."
