How to compile C code for a Motorola 68K ECB using TUTOR?

A 68HC11 and a 68K are totally different processors, even though they are both from Motorola. The HC11 is an 8 bit, while most 68K variants have 32 bit registers and a 16 bit data bus. Tutor is a machine language monitor. It basically just loads the absolute binary of the program you have assembled or compiled and linked to an S19 file (Motorola S record format). You need to know the memory map of your board, along with what functions are built into its ROM. I don’t know anything about this board, as all of the systems I have worked on have been custom. If it were me, I would use the Motorola freeware assembler and skip C entirely. The 68K has probably the best instruction set of any processor ever made. I programmed 68K’s for about 8 years, and the 8 bit Motorola processors for 12 years before that.
