Subject: FYI: targetting the 8086
Precedence: bulk


I've been toying with building up a 16-bit programming environment for
those cases where DJGPP's 32-bit restriction is a limitation.  To this end,
I have undertaken two projects:

1. djlink is a simple 16-bit OMF linker.  The only other linker is
   "val link", the source of which is very unreadable and it doesn't
   seem supported.

2. gcc for 8086.  I was unable to find anyone who had done this, so I
   did it.  It uses nasm and djlink.

Everything I've got so far is at http://www.delorie.com/djgpp/16bit/
