Adrian, I was not upset or anything - I just wondered if you realized that. The XTC68 was just the version compiled to run on DOS and produce 68000 code. In fact most of the C68 development actually took place under Windows using Visual C as the debugging tools were rather better.
There has been no change for a very long time now. I guess if some bug reports were received it might be looked at again. As I said if you were interested in producing a Windows graphic front-end then feel free to go ahead. It should not be very hard to do using Microsoft .NET toolset.

I did not realise that XTC68 was exactly the same suite as the C68 compiler which you have done a sterling job of maintaining for many years. I thought, as the binaries I have were dated 1997, that it was a different compiler that had not been maintained in that time. Now that you have set me straight, my request is herewith withdrawn and I shall never raise the subject on this list again.
