It would be

I can well imagine an embedded system which doesn't even have files.
I would imagine that C would be the usual language for these, but
in a non-hosted environment (which means that I/O doesn't have to
be available), but there's no reason that Fortran could not be used
instead.


Fortran was used in some embedded environments. It is still listed as a component of some embedded development environments but few of those are actively used or marketed (or updated).



But it takes more than a syntax and a bunch of chips to make an integrated
circuit. It takes less effort and money to do this using windows and C
than one might believe, with development environments like Win AVR.


those embedded-suitable fortran compilers had all the necessary extensions such that it wasn't any easier necessarily. More important is what the OS API is written in.


I was unaware that such tools existed for fortran. The advantage to WinAVR
is the price: free, and having a group of people out there that you can
talk to about it.


comp.arch.embedded has lively discussions of relevant issues. I'm wiring
the fans in my hallway so that a microchip could run them, which is to say,
I'm finishing the hallway so that wires can be fished through without
grief.


i've done a lot of pulling wires of all sorts through inner and outer walls (i hate outer walls, at least in some roof designs)


That's why they have hammer drills and I have hearing loss.


ooops, one of us has a time zone problem


It's seven bells on my machine, which agrees when I google for time.

Maybe you're getting nervous for your thesis defense and best distract
yourself. (I'm hyper-aware of time when I'm nervous about having to do
something.)

Might be a good night to go see "W."
Was referring to the out of order sorting of these threads in google groups.
