| Abstract: | We describe the transfer of a BCPL compiler installed on a PDP-11 to a hobbyist's home Z80 microcomputer. The design of the Z80 support software needed is explained in some detail. The development of a debugging Ocode interpreter and of an Ocode loader featuring code compression proved particularly helpful. |
