Other LCCs

My efforts aren’t the first attempt to turn LCC into a 65816 compiler. Let’s look at some other efforts.

Toshiyasu Morita

In 1993/1994, Toshiyasu Morita modified LCC 1.9. LCC was modified to generate intermediate DAG files. A separate program (dag2gs) generated macro-heavy ORCA/M code.

Fabrice France (LCC65)

Fabrice France modified LCC 1.9 to generate 6502 code, for use with the ORIC computer.

Fabrice France (LCC65802)

Fabrice France apparently also modifed LCC to generate 65802/65816 code. Sadly it was never released but the examples look promising.
