[Oberon] An Oberon7 compiler for Linux.

[Andreas Pirklbauer]

Srinivas,
obc is very nice piece work!
As for the modules Kernel.Mod, FileDir.Mod, Files.Mod and Modules.Mod, you should note that these 4 modules constitute the so-called Oberon "inner core". The inner core must be loaded in pre-linked format onto the disk's boot area from where it is loaded (at boot time) by the Oberon boot loader (BootLoader.Mod) byte for byte into main memory. Then the boot loader passes control to its top module (module Modules).
So, if you really want to be complete, you may also want port the "linker" (a program that pre-links the 4 modules of the inner core and makes a valid boot file from them) and the "builder" (a program that transfers the boot file to the disk's boot area) from https://github.com/andreaspirklbauer/Oberon-building-tools to run on Linux (or MacOS) as well.
Then you'd have a true cross-compile *and* bootstrap environment running on Linux.

How I use it:
Using this compiler, first I compile Kernel.Mod.txt, FileDir.Mod.txt etc.I gather the *.smb file and *.rsc file in my "obc" folder.Now my "obc" folder acts as an Oberon development environment!I can now create/modify/compile any Oberon module on Linux.And finally I can send the .Mod, .smb and .rsc file to Simulator to run it!
I hope, people like me, who are not having much of Oberon experience,will find it easy to develop their Oberon skills using this compiler.

With thanks and best regards,
Yours sincerely,Srinivas Nayak
