Revive C compilers by Dennis Ritchie

I would like to update the Unix V7 C compiler by Dennis Ritchie to a modern architecture.

Versions

The code from V7 is in the V7 branch. Other versions are in V10 and 2.11BSD branch.

The master contains the version that I am working on.

Sub Projects

• cc contains the compiler code
• cpp is a C pre-processor written by Dennis Ritchie.
• docs contains a design document for the C compiler written by Dennis Ritchie.

Current Status

See the cc subproject for its status.
