Hi all,

Does anyone happen to have a copy of these squirrelled away?

- Oregon Pascal for VAX/VMS

- Oregon Pascal M68000 -- cross compiler for VAX (or any other host
platform). Probably called "P68.EXE" or something similar.

- Oregon / Taumetric M68000 Cross Assembler for VAX (or any other).
Probably called "MASM.EXE" or similar.

- Oregon / Taumetric M68000 Linker for VAX (or any other). Probably
called "MIL.EXE" or similar.

The assembler and linker might be ports of Motorola's M68KMASM and
M68KLINK -- so something equivalent which takes the Motorola-format .SA
files and spits out .RO files should work instead.

I've been tasked with getting some ancient code building again, and as
usually happens, the "backup" is incomplete...

Thanks,
--
Phil.

p2c (a pascal to C translator) is a bit old, but many years ago, I used p2c-1.21 to convert Oregon Software Pascal 2 programs written for RSX-11M. It understands VAX Pascal and Oregon Software Pascal extensions up to the early 1990's. Its default configuration generates valid C programs so it can be wrapped in a script that runs cc on the result similar to a Pascal compiler. It also has options to generate human readable C that doesn't always compile but does almost all of the work if you want to port Pascal code to maintainable C.

Thanks for that, William.

I was vaguely aware of p2c - but I'm looking at trying to generate the
firmware binaries from the original source first. Porting the whole
thing from Pascal to C isn't likely to be a quick or fun task... I'd
have to find a suitable 68000 assembler and C compiler too.

Cheers
Phil.
