where can I get an oberon linker?
: I have just downloaded the oberon system and language from oak.oakland.edu.
: I seem to have it running on my ms-dos 386, but I don't have a linker.
: Does anyone know where I can get an ms-dos linker for oberon so that I can
: run some of these programs?
Oberon does not need a linker. The Oberon system loads and links
the *.Obj on demand ie. when the modules are used.
: Also, where can I find good references to the language and the oberon
: environment?
A list of oberon books can be found in the FAQ for comp.lang.oberon.
The FAQ itself can be found on rtfm.mit.edu.
The Oberon/Docu directory on neptune.inf.ethz.ch has a number
of articles on Oberon including a guide to System 1.2. The
current version is System 4.0, but little has changed between
versions.
Hope this helps.
