[Coco] Looking for "C" utils

Stephen H. Fisher, I finally found "Rcr". It was hidden on the hard drive under the name "Rcm2". I was doing Idents on files that I had no idea what they were and "Rcr" came up as the real name for "Rcm2". Here's the Usage printout:

--------
Usage: rcr {-opts} cfile1 cfile2
    omit the .c extension from cfile names
 -dPATH Write output.r to PATH/output.r
 -o Don't optimize the following files
 -a Don't assemble; leave /R0 .a file
 -s Turn off stack checking code
 -b Shut up the running commentary
 -y Do run the ,Y removal filter
 -t Do touch the final .r file
 -c Don't clean up the work files
--------

Why it was under another name, I don't know. The makefile clearly calls it by name. Unless it was in a merged command file of utilities loaded before compilation. I haven't seen one yet, but I'm not through going through the files.

Hi,
Perhaps where you found the reference to "Rcr" would help.
The same for "CNoY" which I recognized, but it still may not be the correct 
ne.
The one on Gene's page is for removing unnecessary instructions generated by 
he OS-9 6809 "C" compiler AFAIK.
> At this point, I would add CnoY, from Genes site.  This is for coco3 level
 2 & later only machines, and optimizes the ,y references out of the asm
 code generated, giving a slight speedup since the y reference is a machine
 cycle slower than an x, u, or s reference.
You really must want the very fastest "C" code which Gene needed!
I searched for "Rcr" in this list going back to April 10, 2008 and it has 
ot been discussed.

 Hi,
 "Rcr" I have no idea.
 "CNoY" is on Gene's web page:

 Below the picture you will see:
 "I have copied some possibly useful things from the coco's hard drive to
 ere."
 The word "here" when clicked on will get you to the directory.
 "Rcr" perhaps is a routine to remove Carriage Returns, but why would you
 ant to do that?

 Hi guys,
 I'm looking for the "C" utils "CNoY" and "Rcr"
 I've run across references to them in some C source code I've been
 modifying
 I've looked through all the archives (RTSI, Repository & MaltedMedia) and
 if they
 are there, they're on a random disk image somewhere.
 Anyone know where.. or what to look for to find these files?
 Thanx
