Yes, we've used that to interface to our target processor, and we use it for
debugging/smulation.

I asked my manager about TRON, and found out that they used to use TRON...
iTRON is mainly for embedded systems and BTRON, is for desktop-use(?). He
also added that it is more or less "academic".
Asked if the source was freely available, he said that only the specs are
available for iTRON, and people used that as a reference.
We stumbled upon a B-Free, a free implementation of BTRON.
