- Mark,
- I suspect Think C would be fine for compiling extruded applications.
- But...at least for now...if you want to write C routines for inclusion with
- your code, in the environment, you need MPW C. You actually link your code
- into their startup application.
-
- Chris, et al,
- I run Component Workshop on a 20 meg IIci. Since I like to be able to
- run other stuff, too (like ResEdit, or whatever), and since I have become
- dependent on having Frontier (Eddy award and all) running most of the time,
- I run 20 meg real memory, 26 or 27 meg virtual (depending on how much room
- is available on the hard disk at the time). In steady state, no paging
- goes on in that configuration.
-
- Speed is not overwhelming...I may finally be "forced" to give my IIci a
- cache card.
-
- Hardware floating point is required (or a software emulation, third
- party, thereof).
-
- I like it.
