Humm. That seems promising. How much memory does it
take up though, when you start compiling programs?
Does that six meg include the headder and library
files?
The other thing is if it could be slimmed down enough,
I wanted to put it on my helio. Yes it runs linux.
As soon as I find a run-in-place image for it I was
hoping to get a little compiler on it. If the
compiler is ~1.5 meg and most of the system ran in the
flash, leaving a whoping lessay 5 megs free (I'm
dreaming arn't I?) Thats about what I used to run on a
very old mac. I had a mini version of Symantic Think
C that came with a book on c for the mac. It had a
*very* limmited set of libs and headders, but it ran
off of a floppy, and really compiled code...but it ran
on a floppy. When I say small I means small ;)
