Whitesmiths C Compiler Open Source Initiative: A Legend Returns

The Whitesmiths C compiler, originally released in 1978, supported architectures like DEC PDP-11 and Intel 8080, is poised to become open source! Its creator, P.J. Plauger, has granted permission for non-commercial use. Binaries and some source code for versions including CP/M-80 and an IBM System/36 cross-compiler are now available for download. This historically significant compiler will be a valuable resource for studying the history and development of the C language.
