I would not consider this particularly tricky. Isn't it Simply a job of porting gas + gcc to the amiga? And modifying config.h to produce r3000 code? I'm sure there must already be a port of gcc to the mig. Or am I missing something. You may have trouble with the lib, but they are linked at run time as if it was a .sl So if the libps.a changes to included code not in LIBPSX.EXE you may have problems. > > Jon Rocatis wrote in article <334CB7CF.5CBC@funcom.com>... > > Hello! > > > > I'm trying to get a R3000 GNU compiler up and running on my Amiga.

SIOCONS is simply a terminal program, other terminal programs work fine too although you can't transfer anything. You could always attach a dumb terminal/another pc to the other end of a null modem and see what gets passed around when you use siocons. If you don't have the kit to do this I could always give it a shot for you. Regards Jim
