Hello all,

A while back I tried to install the cross compiler (following the instructions found here ) -- last time I tried it I could not get it to work, however this time (using an old 32-bit EEEPC running Slackware 13.1) it works!

However that's not the reason for my post? My reason? The programming language bacon basicworks on the crosscompiler!

After installing and issuing a setup command;

Code:
. /usr/local/angstrom/arm/environment-setup

I was able to download some of the example files from the bacon website, and used this command to compile (for example, the clock example program) by doing (on a 32-bit PC!):

Code:
./bacon.bash -c arm-angstrom-linux-gnueabi-gcc gtkdemo.bac

And transferred the binary file to my pandora via SD card and to my surprise it worked! Only thing which didn't work was the demos that used the GL library, I'm guessing pandora dosen't have that?

Maybe this might prove to be a handy utility for people out there to put together simple programs/apps for the pandora?

Yea, the Pandora has GLes, not GL.
