Subject: 32016 Compiler (+others)

Traffic seems to be quite on here right now, but behind the scenes some of
us are hacking furiously!

Those of you with 32016's may be pleased to know I've ALMOST got a cross 
compiler (GCC2.3.3) running from my UNIX box. There are still a few bugs 
to be fixed, but the basic stuff is up and runining - it uses Pandora rather
than Panos so the end result should be a bit more stable than the existing
software. thanks to chris for support on this one.

Chatting to Mathew - he's been wondering about networking Beebs with other 
machines (CHEAPLY!!!). I'd also like to lay i some cabling to connect together 
my machines. Any ideas? How parctical would it be to implement a simple 
network based on multidrop serial cable - one cable with small interfaces
to convert them to rs232 where they can be handled by whateer hardware is
available - rubbish performance, but good portability.

I just added mark to the list - for some reason he wants to rewrite adfs
- I seem to remember a few messages from a few other people with similar
ideas. Any volenteers?
