cc65 is based on a native C compiler that was originally adapted for the Atari 8-bit computers by John R. Dunning in 1989, which originated as a Small-C descendant. It has several extensions, and some of the limits of the original Small C compiler are gone.
The toolkit has largely been expanded by Ullrich von Bassewitz and other contributors. The actual cc65 compiler, a complete set of binary tools (assembler, linker, etc.) and runtime library are under a license identical to zlib's.[3]
The compiler itself comes close to ANSI C compatibility, while C library features depend on the target platform's hardware. stdio is supported on many platforms, as is Borland-style conio.h screen handling. GEOS is also supported on the Commodore 64 and the Apple II. The library supports many of the Commodore platforms (C64, C128, C16/116/Plus/4, P500 and 600/700 family), Apple II, Atari 8-bit computers, Oric Atmos, Nintendo Entertainment System,[4][5] Watara Supervision game console, Synertek Systems SYM-1 and Ohio Scientific Challenger 1P.[6]
Officially supported host systems include Linux, Microsoft Windows, MS-DOS and OS/2, but the source code itself has been reported[by whom?] to work almost unmodified on many platforms beside these.
The ca65 macro assembler supports 6502, 65C02, and 65C816 processors, and can be used standalone without the C compiler.[7]
Note: For static libraries, "Yes" means the feature is available. For dynamic libraries, the columns list the number of available drivers.
