If you upgrade to the commercial version of icc11 not only do you get a
downloader that works under windows 9x but also very nice library
interface. (disclaimer: I wrote the library :-)

In general on embedded systems you _don't_ want to use printf, way more
features than you need. Try using "puts()" to print strings and
printdec(int x) to print a decimal number. Between the two of them you can
write some really tight code.

Hi again,

  Thanks to those who sent suggestions.  Running in DOS mode, not W95 dlm
does work just fine.  Ick.  Oh well.  Anyway, I thought that 2K of EEPROM
would be enough to do something with, and it may be, but probably not in
ICC - The printf.c code's s19 file goes from $F800 to $FFDF, I guess that
printf is NOT a feature to use on the Miniboard, either that or the overhead
of ICC takes up most of the available space, whatever.  It still works for
some simple stuff just fine.  Now if I could find a W95 based dlm, it would
be even better.

have fun,

(...) I didn't think printf() was even available on the shareware (old) version of icc? (24 years ago, 6-Oct-00, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
