Hand conversion. At first sight it actually looked like C code but the more you dug in the more C++ stuff came up. Nothing too complicated however. I've never really programmed C on the QL before, just Basic an assembler. But nowadays I do C for a living and thus had my first real look at C68 and must say you did a pretty remarkable job with it! My biggest grievances actually were the lack of C++ style comments and the way the distribution is packed. I think a ready-to-run .WIN file might make a huge improvement there. Oh yeah, and ditching Quill for documentation, but there I converted all files to PDFs for easier viewing. > I would love to have C== on the QL, but it always looks not possible, > maybe just hand converting to C68 would be the only solution. Yeah, I don't think it's worth the effort, anyhow. Most C++ stuff tends to be so complicated that it would probably be hard to port in any case.
