Millfork
A middle-level programming language targeting 6502-based, 8080-based, Z80-based and 6809-based microcomputers.
For binary releases, see: https://github.com/KarolS/millfork/releases
(latest: 0.3.28).
For build instructions, see Build instructions.
Features
-
high performance, due to being designed and optimized for 8-bit microprocessors
-
multiple targets:
-
Commodore 64 (the primary target)
-
Commodore 64 with SuperCPU (experimental, incomplete and very buggy)
-
other Commodore computers: C16, Plus/4, C128, PET, VIC-20 (stock or with RAM extensions)
-
other 6502-based machines: Famicom/NES, Atari Lynx, Atari 8-bit computers, BBC Micro, Apple II+/IIe/Enhanced IIe, Atari 2600 (experimental), Commander X16 (experimental)
-
Z80-based machines: ZX Spectrum 48k, NEC PC-88, Amstrad CPC, MSX, TRS-80 Model 1 and 3, Robotron Z1013
-
CP/M
-
Game Boy (experimental)
-
Tandy Color Computer (experimental)
-
MS-DOS (very experimental, via 8080-to-8086 translation)
-
-
multiple supported target processors:
-
well supported: MOS 6502, Ricoh 2A03/2A07, WDC 65C02, Intel 8080, Intel 8085, Zilog Z80
-
reasonably well supported: Sharp LR35902, CSG 65CE02, Motorola 6809
-
partially supported: Hudson Soft HuC6280, WDC 65816, Intel 8086
-
-
inline assembly
-
simple macros
-
pay only for what you use: not a single byte of memory is used unless for code or explicitly declared variables
-
a simple memory model that avoids using the stack
-
multi-pass whole-program optimizer (that will even optimize your hand-written assembly if you ask it to)
-
support for multi-file programs (Commodore only) and banked cartridges

The standard include files (located in the include
directory) are distributed under a more permissive Zlib license (see include/LICENSE).
