- EMX is a free OS/2 developement system. The heart of it is the Gnu C
- compiler, GCC. There is also a C++ compiler. The OS/2 end of things
- was written by Eberhard Mattes, with contributions by others (such as Kai-Uwe).
- EMX-GCC includes alot of support for UNIX style programming, but also
- supports most native OS/2 programming features. Future versions will
- include more OS/2 specific features, and should make EMX a complete
- developement system. EMX programs can even run under MSDOS, using a DOS
- extender.
-
- EMX includes the GDB debugger, a solid C library, librarians and linkers
- for UNIX and OS/2 libraries and object files. UNIX curses library.
-
- EMX makes things much simpler to port UNIX programs, and lets you do
- OS/2 programming. Best of both you might say.
-
- you can get EMX (version 0.8e) on ftp-os2.nmsu.edu in /pub/os2/programming
- you need emxdev.zip and gnudev.zip. emxtest.zip contains some good samples.
- You might want to get a make program (there are several on ftp-os2).
