COuld someone advise on the best way to set up a compilation environment - should I try cross compiling, or go native?  Either way, which toolchain is recommended?  I know DICE and a little bit of the SAS/C environment, but I don't feel that that'll do the job :-)

Any advice appreciated on this before I waste a load of time just on the build environment! :-D

I use the GCC environment of Cubic IDE which is a really good start.

Fantastic, thank you DJBase - just setting that up now!

I've taken a look at the source a while ago but the make file is a bit complicated for me, it uses a lot of advanced Make syntax. The 1st hurdle I found was what seems to be a Perl script. There's various versions of Perl available on Aminet but I didn't take a look on setting them up. There probably would have to be modifications of the make file on the way it calls the perl script on 3.x too.

Perl is awful too. I'd probably stop there...

I found THIS page for perl on AmigaOS 3.x, if anyone wants to take I look.
I just know they start with "#!" or something:)

That's the shebang, used to indicate to unix-like shells how to invoke the rest of the script.

#!/usr/bin/perl

for instance, tells the shell to invoke the perl command.

Perl is great! Long live perl <3

Shebang, wow, I like the name :-D
