Small-C
A subset of {C}. The original compiler, written in {C} by Ron
Cain, appeared in Dr. Dobb's Journal. James E. Hendrix
improved and extended the original compiler and published "The
Small-C Handbook". Both these compilers produced {8080}
{assembly code}.
A Small-C compiler based on {RatC} produced {6502} {assembly
code} for the {BBC Microcomputer}. It was written in Small-C
and {bootstrap}ped using {Zorland C} on an {Amstrad PC1512}
under {MS-DOS} 3.2, then transferred onto a {BBC Micro} using
{Kermit}. The compiler can be used to cross-compile {6502}
code from an {MS-DOS} host, or as a {resident} Small-C
compiler on a BBC Micro. It runs on {68000}, {6809}, {VAX},
{8080}, {BBC Micro} and {Zilog Z80}.
