GCC for 65C02



I've uploaded GCC for the 65C02 in the Software section of
my Oric site ( http://members.xoom.com/oric2000 ).
This is a great work done by Dave MacWherter, but his company
has unfortunately stopped using the 6502 in their electronic devices,
so it is not maintained anymore.
I was willing to maintain it, but has not enough time, so I'm uploading
two packages in the hope some people do some work for it :

- there's the original source distribution from Dave : it's a great
code generator, but unfortunately it generates the newer 65C02
instructions instead of only the genuine NMos 65xx instructions.
It would be great if someone adds a switch allowing to choose
between 6502 or 65C02 code generation.

- there's a minimal binary distribution I compiled for Linux (you
might have problems compiling it yourself), including a small
awk script that translates the assembly output : the code generator
currently generates an assembly output intended for Franklin
Electronic Publishers' proprietary assembler.
I took the quick and dirty path and added a small awk script in
order to convert the assembly syntax to Archie Cobbs' Apple2
assembler, but it would be better to modify the code generator
itself. This work is rather related to the first one : it means
modifying the output like above, so it would be better if the
same guy does both works 8-)
