- -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
- The only addition with respect to the 5th ACK distribution is the support
- for Solaris 2 on SPARCs. It also contains many bug fixes.
- Notes for the 5th ACK 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.
- Many problems with the previous distribution have been fixed.
- The major additions are:
- - an ANSI C compiler
- - a LINT C program checker, both non-ansi and ansi
- - an Intel 80386 back-end
- - a SPARC code expander
- - a source level debugger for Pascal, Modula-2, C, and ANSI C
- - an Acorn Archimedes back-end
- - code-expanders for VAX, Intel 80386 and Motorola M68020 processors,
- and very fast Pascal, Modula-2, ANSI C, and C compilers constructed
- using these code expanders
- - a cc-compatible very fast C compiler for SUN-3 and VAX.
- Also added, but not part of the Kit proper are
- - flex: a lexical analyzer generator
- - byacc: yacc-clone by UCB
- - f2c: a Fortran to C compiler by AT&T.
- See the ACK installation manual for their copyright notices.
