The present version of Icon does not produce .exe files. The new
optimizing compiler for Icon produces .exe files, but it
requires a 32-bit platform with extended memory and a 32-bit
C compiler (the Icon compiler produces C code).
The source code for Icon, which includes both the compiler and
the more commonly used interpreter, is available by FTP
from cs.arizona.edu. cd /icon and get READ.ME for navigation
instructions.
Be forewarned that building the Icon compiler requires substantial
resources. We recommend a fast 486 and at least 4MB of extended
memory (it depends on the 32-bit C compiler you use).
