Hello, C99 is already more than 25 years old.
I'm not asking to support C18 or C23, but a tradeoff should be made not to lag too far behind. Suckless or not, C11 added many features for modern software (multitasking support, etc). Let's say C99 should be covered indeed, 25 years in the making, but C11 shouldn't be ditched.

I think that the current main goal of tcc development should be focused on full support for C99. Core values behind tcc - simplicity, efficiency and frugality in software - are shared with the suckless movement, so having a simple, fast and efficient complete C99 compiler would benefit the community more than diverting attention to the simultaneous development of C11 features. _______________________________________________ Tinycc-devel mailing list [email protected] https://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/tinycc-devel _______________________________________________ Tinycc-devel mailing list [email protected] https://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/tinycc-devel
