Dear Mike,

I've used Ofront for target ZX Spectrum 48 Kb (CPU Z80) with SDCC (Small
Device C Compiler) as C compiler. But without garbage collection. Yes,
really no problems. :-)

If you're interested in platorms Win32/Win64 - first step is probably
producing of WinApi bindings for Ofront. It's not simple task, as I think.

If you're interested in cross-development thry different platforms in
similar way, probably you'll need to build layer library that needs to
be developed for different platforms in different ways (maybe even in
not Oberon or Component Pascal).

If you need to develop software for Win32/.NET, maybe not bad solution
is develop for Win32 in BlackBox, and for .NET (or for Java) in GPCP.

I specially do not consider here problem of the building of
cross-platform GUI in Oberons. It's a very not simple question.
