I was hoping to find on-line manuals that I could print and read on the john. So far no luck. But what I really need is how to declare variables in C.
For example, I have a sample code that has the statement:
unsigned char
and
unsigned long
What do these mean and do they limit the declaration to integers. What do i declare if I want a floating point?
Also, someone told me I cant do floating point with a Keil Compiler because of licensing issues (I got my copy from Silicon Labs and have just registered it). I will eventually need to do trig functions. What do i have to get (buy) to complete my project?
True, but many a fine tune played on an old fiddle. I was years away doing VHDL and just got back to the '51, using C this time round.

PLM51 is quite nice. It adds structure similar to C, but limits the possible declarations a bit to make sure that you can't write processor-hostile constructs.
No more than two months since last I had to look at a PLM51 program - some products just refuses to die :)
I still have PLM51 and '86 compilers/linkers I have the compiler manuals but the linker manuals went south a long while ago. I would love to find copies of these again. Anyone?
Regards
I would love to find copies of these again.
Yes, I worked in PLM51 as well. And, I have all of the original Intel manuals (in the silly printed semi-half-page format). If you're ever in Dallas, look me up.

Hi, the www is just amazing. But hey, look after them, its mostly nostalgia working but I might just call by one day. Regards :-)
