Well, if it's only that, QMake is even nicer and works with any standard QL link file without additional effort.
No that was just a dangerous side quest I found myself on while looking at QMAC macros
My main aim is to rebuild the C68 libraries so I can add functions which are now common to make porting easier. I had noticed that qmac turns up in at least one library!

I did that once and wanted to release the result as a complete C68 distribution, but never quite got around to it. Was a bit of work, especially as the official sources are missing a few files IIRC (but got them from Dave). Can revisit it if it helps you.

Do you want to collaborate on a single source of truth then?
I am going to start with libcurse as I already have an essential patch for that, that I used the library tool to replace function in library, but really could do with incorporating into sources properly.
I meant everything "source filey" for the C68 system, sorry.
I had the sources on floppy, but lost all my floppies to "old age" problems. I know, from further back up this thread, that some files are missing but Marcel now has them, but I was just wondering if we could/should/would stick everything C68 Compiler System related onto the SinclairQL GitHub, for safe keeping.
Cheers,
Norm.
