Hi-Tech [MicroChip] Z80 C compiler package. I have uploaded the complete package to here http://www.safetycritical.info/p…/Microchip_Hitech_C_Z80.zip NOTE that it is a DOS compiler that requires a 16/32 bit PC (some of the files are .com not .exe) This is the COMPLETE 1989 V4.11 package with all manuals and release notes. It is from the origional commercial version (complete with 3 ring binder and origional floppy disks. ) sitting on my desk. The manuals in the download are scans of the origional. I have included a txt version I found on-line (which looks to be the same as the origional I scaned) Microchip who bought Hi-Tech in 2009 discontinued all non PIC compilers Hi-Tech did. The Hi-Tech Z80 C compiler I believe was discontinued a decade before. However techically Microchip own the rights to this compiler. They have given permission for it to be made freely available with the following notice (which has been added to the package as a PDF (and some of the header files by me) It does not say "non-comercial use only" but I would not recommend it for anything but non-critical hobby use.
