Description

A PLANC cross-compiler — runs on ND-500/5000 hardware but generates code for the ND-110 (a member of the ND-100 family). Same install/runtime shape as the native PLANC compilers: a compiler domain plus 1-bank/2-bank runtime BRF files. This revision (I) adds significant language features over PLANC-H: routines as record components, a new routine-heading syntax, matching routine names after ENDROUTINE, unsigned integer types, underscored integer constants, string constants, public/private record members, (% %) block comments, hex I/O format, record-to-bytes conversion, operator-priority routines, XARGS/MAINSTART routine modifiers, and several new compiler commands ($GET-VALUE, $GENERATE-IMPORTS, $LONG-NAMES, $EXPAND-MACROS, $VERSION-INFORMATION) — not exhaustively transcribed here, see the PD sheet for the full 9-page changelog.
