I'm interested to know what platforms exist that don't have a free
C90 compiler yet.
Such that a person would be in a position where they can't even
accept a 20-line C program and would need to recode the
functionality in assembler etc, because they can't justify buying
a C compiler to compile a 20-line program they are interested in.
ie how far off are we from having a lingua franca for computers?
Previously the biggest that I knew of was MVS. Then CMS.
But those have recently been covered by ports of GCC. That
means the biggest that I know of is DOS/VS(E).
Is there anything out there with more users/programmers than
DOS/VS(E)?
