Nope. That's the one that I wrote with Paul Lalonde a couply of years ago. I'll
contact Paul to see if we can release it under GPL. It needs a lot of
modifications though, since it now emits Mac (ARTA) specific object code.

Anyway, good change that a compiler is there. But that's not the hard part. That
is absolutely interfacing with the DSP and getting the VCOS (or ARTA) OS in
there.

I also wrote a disassembler for 3210 objects and a very simple debugger. If
we have someone here who is familiar with 3210 internals and how to connect
it to the rest of the OS then we might be able to build something very
nice ;)

Is it an idea to make this a special project and announce it on comp.dsp? I
volunteer to be the project maintainer.
