That compiler did originally live on CP/M, and was successfully ported to the MS-DOS platform. I have it for MS-DOS. And I have used it, to write programs that were designed fo= r extreme simplicity. I can not remember now, but there's a site whose specialty is remembering the things the CP/M OS could do it is availabl= e there, I believe. I think the MS-DOS platform version could be cross compiled onto working in this target environment. But I won't bet on it= =2E As to where I had found it, I don't remember that. But if any of you want it, let me know, and I'll dig it up, and work on making it available, one way or another. Please do this request off list.
