6.5 What is the difference between the NEXTSTEP/Intel User Environment and Developer Environment?

Although it is possible to just get the latest GNU C compiler as a binary, you can not use it! This is because you won't get the standard libraries needed to produce NeXT applications neither the header files. Also it there is currently no third party compiler shipping. If you want to compile, you are forced to use the NeXT Developer package.

The status of compiling a standard UNIX utility without NeXT's headers and just based on the supplied shared libraries is unknown.

• (weiter mit 6.6 If a specific I/O card is not supported by NeXT, can 3rd parties write drivers for NEXTSTEP/Intel?)
