Compilers

sccz80 and zsdcc

Part of Z88dk

"sccz80" is a small C derived C compiler that is nearly C90 compliant with a few notable exceptions. Emphasis is on small code.

"zsdcc" is a fork of sdcc-z80 that is an open source optimizing C compiler with C90 and elements of C99 and C11 compliance.

A Next target is present and under development. Output file types include tap, sna, and esxdos dot commands.
