A89: Cross compiling GNU gcc for TI-89 & TI-92(+)
Hi,
[Wondering mode ON]
Why DoorsOs's (the TI-92+ & Ti-89 shell) conversion utils objtobin.exe, binto89x.exe and a68k sources are not released to general public? I've had the idea to port GNU binutils and gcc to be used in compling for TI-89 and TI92+. Everything might go just fine if knew how their fileformats (.o and .89x) are arranged. But no, there doesn't exist any information. So, could somebody please release them?

OK, DoorOs (and thus Fargo's) internal format is somewhat documented, but not enough for me to be able to add backend to GNU binutils package to output that.
Is there anybody willing to help me to get cross compling GNU gcc and GNU binutils ported to TI-89 and TI92+? Any help would be (as always ;-) greatly appreciated!
If you haven't yet understood, let me clarify, this is big project (we need floating point support for GNU gcc to use TI-89's and TI-92+'s floating point emulator, and some sort of subset of libc to be used on these platforms). But there would be a grand prize, a good, well optimizing C-compiler available for public! Am I all alone with my dream, or will this going to be true?

PS. Sorry for this cross-posting, but I hope from my heart that this will be the benefit of both TI-89 and TI-92(+). Yes, I'm also going to get this twice...
