- I'm afraid I can't help you with your second question.
-
- As for your first, years ago I did some RMX development
- on Unix (System V, but it shouldn't matter) using an RMX
- emulator that we developed. I would recommend this
- approach and could probably find you the emulator sources
- if you'd like (no promises, it was 7 years ago!).
-
- There weren't any (that I remember, so there may have been
- a few) problems with differences between the Intel compiler
- and the Unix compiler. Nor were there any differences between
- RMX and our emulator even though it only took a couple of weeks
- to write. Actually now I think about it, we left out certain
- parts that we weren't going to use, such as task control.

- Stuart.
