- What's new:
- A lot of things have changed since the previous distribution.
- It is not wise to mix files created by the previous version of the Kit
- with files belonging to this version, although that might sometimes work.
- The major changes are:
- - a new C-compiler and runtime system
- - a new C preprocessor
- - new assembler framework, allowing the generation of relocatable
- object code for most processors
- - new versions of all assemblers, using the new assembler framework
- - a new link-editor, linking is now a separate and fast phase for most
- machines
- - improved Pascal compiler, now also handles 4-byte wordsize
- - Motorola M68020 backend and assembler
- - Support for (some) SUN systems
- - improved version of LL(1) parser generator, producing faster code
- - a new language: Occam
- - better System V support, the Kit should now just compile and run
