- GNU Software on the Amiga last updated 27 May 91
- by Leonard Norrgard <vinsci@nic.funet.fi>
-
- Ports to the Amiga of the GNU C compiler (GCC) and related tools can
- be anonymously ftped from various archives, listed below. Work is
- currently in progress which eventually will lead to a merge with the
- official GCC distribution (this is possible due to the very few
- changes needed). GNU Emacs is also available in early versions, with
- a new release said to appear soon.
-
- Note that Commodore-Amiga independently makes some ports available
- for use under Amiga Unix (System V, Release 4), notably GCC, which is
- now the default compiler for Amiga Unix, and GNU Emacs. These ports
- are included with their software distribution.
-
- The porting team for GCC maintains a mailing list based on the machine
- lists.funet.fi in Finland. The low-volume list primarily discuss
- technical issues of the current and future ports and related matters.
- For information on how to subscribe, send a e-mail message with a
- contents of the words HELP and LIST on two separate lines...
-
- HELP
- LIST
-
- ...to the address mailserv@lists.funet.fi and you will receive the
- information. In the answer to HELP, look for the ``subscribe''
- command. In the answer to LIST look for ``amiga-gcc-port''. The
- subject line of the message is ignored. Mailserv is an automated mail
- message handler, so don't expect it to answer questions. For
- information on mailserv itself, contact Matti Aarnio
- <mea@nic.funet.fi>. For further information on the GCC port and
- related projects subscribe to the amiga-gcc-port mailing list as
- described above or write to Leonard Norrgard <vinsci@nic.funet.fi>.
- For further information on GNU Emacs for the Amiga, write to Mark D.
- Henning <henning@stolaf.edu>.
-
- I'd like to thank Markus Wild, Ray Burr and Sam Rushing who all have
- contributed and continues to contribute to this project in a major
- way. Thanks!
