Subject: Re: Did AZTEC C V1.05g produce 8080 or Z80 ?

Well, I have Aztec C 1.06d and I have two versions of the compiler.

     'CC' generates 8080 code only
     'CZ' generates Z80 code in 'extended Intel' format

As someone once pointed out, the Z80 compiler really doesn't take full
advantage of the Z80's instruction set.  I ran a small program through
both and didn't see any difference in the output.

Besides, the library routines would have to all be in 8080 code anyway.
