Re: ANSI C to p-code compiler

You might consider the "bytecode" back end that's now part of the lcc
distri bution (http://www.cs.princeton.edu/software/lcc/). It's a
straight-forward postfix encoding of the lcc IR, which is documented
in the lcc book (Chapter 5) and at the
http://www.cs.princeton.edu/software/lcc/pkg/doc/4.html.


The encoding is not particularly compact, but it serves as a good
source of fodder for compressors. Indeed, bytecode.c is the basis for
the emitters that I've used for several recent compression projects.
