This week on the blog: the vbcc compiler that I generally recommend for Amiga and Atari ST work has gotten a new-ish backend for the 65816 CPU, with libraries for the SNES and Apple IIgs. I put the Apple IIgs side through its paces a bit. TL;DR: Very promising; not up to speed with its peers; real OS bindings exist and work; you can still accomplish things with it. https://bumbershootsoft.wordpress.com/2026/10/10/trying-out-the-new-vbcc-65816-compiler/ #retrocomputing #apple2
