Well, yes, especially since (a) the occam compiler is expensive and
(b) the last time I looked it didn't let you use all the transputer
instructions.  [Please don't flame me, Thor, if the new Occam Toolset
does! just let them look in their manuals.]

I do have to admit that I am prejudiced: we have a macro assembler for the
transputer.  It's compatible with the 3L compilers, but not the Inmos
toolsets.  Sorry, it's not shareware.
