You're rather right indeed... I forgot about that. bcc is the "driver" or
something?
But you're very correct about bcc-cc1.... It's something like 85K, eep!
So I suppose all development on ELKS is done by cross-compilation, which
makes sense because it does after all have "embedded" in its name...
It would have been nice to get a C compiler running under ELKS on this
very nearly dead machine at school with but a meg of RAM... :)
If anybody does get bcc to run under ELKS though let me know please :)
Thanks!!
