QL C Compiler

Post by robheaton »

I'm looking into updating the versions of Inform & Zip we have available on the QL.
Can anyone recommend a suitable C compiler?

Any documentation on using the compiler would be appreciated too! :mrgreen:

GCC upto version 3.4.2 can compile 68k code.

I never used the GCC, but probably this will help, try it:

The other alternatives for the QL, are to use the C68 compiler (public domain and converted to the QL), or the Metacomco C compiler - I have only ever used C68 and that was some years ago, so cannot really comment as to which is the better of the two.
