A tiny C99 compiler

The compiler is designed to be able to compile itself, so it is written in C. And it is intended to support all C99 language features while keeping the code as simple and small as possible.

HOWTO build

Make sure you have Linux installed. (Any distribution is fine)

To build the compiler, run command:

make
make install	# root priviledge required 

To build the bootstrap compiler, run command:

make bootstrap

If you use Debian based distribution like Ubuntu, just modify these macros in config.h.

CONFIG_CRT_PREFIX
CONFIG_LIBC_PREFIX
