Ah. If you poke around in the 'target' files, you may find one for the Archimedes load format. In the meantime, couldn't you prototype some of your code just using GCC on FreeBSD? I've found this handy; both the HTTP and DNS servers in the InternetStation were prototyped on FreeBSD before being ported to VxWorks. -- "Where am I, and what am I doing in this handbasket?"
