- Added: Archives (extension
.a
) are now supported. A file tigcc.a
has been created, which is included automatically in all projects.
- Added: Important debug information is now included in the
.s
file(s) if a program is compiled with the '-g' switch or with the corresponding option in the IDE.
- Added: Support for binary values (
0b...
) has been implemented, but its use is strongly deprecated for portability reasons.

'.bin'
file can not be transferred to the calculator.
- Updated: The linker will display the compiled file size even with the quiet switch '-q' enabled.
- Updated: Included library is TIGCCLIB 2.0.
- Added: Included TIGCC IDE by Sebastian Reichelt.
- Updated: The directory structure has been completely changed and is now clearer.

tigccins
(the installation program) is included in the distribution.

console programs (instead of 16-bit DOS programs)
September 26, 1999: TIGCC v0.51, Link v1.01
- Bugfix: C symbols that where exported out-of-order by GCC (i.e.
library@0000
, library@0002
, library@0001
...)
are now inserted properly in the .89z
/.9xz
file. This will make it possibe to write libraries in C the way it should be done.
- Bugfix: The
_comment
symbol is now properly recognized in both C and
assembly programs.
Added: Both tigcc
and link
now have the '-q'
option for quiet assembling or compilation. Does not affect warnings and errors.

link
and tigcc
is included in the distribution.
