==TCC Tiny C Compiler - Include C toolchain on OLPC laptop?== |
|||
My impression is a gcc toolchain is not planned for the laptop, due to space limitations (a fuzzy recollection - I now can't find it mentioned). So I note [http://fabrice.bellard.free.fr/tcc/ TCC], a Tiny C Compiler for x86. GCC compatible, small and fast. Same author as QEMU. |
|||
So a C toolchain ''would'' fit on the laptop. |
|||
I also note its libtcc, which permits disk-less run-time C compilation and linking. Just in case anyone encounters a need for it. |

Graph paper background
Random brainstorming
In User_talk:MitchellNCharity. And Talk:Educational_content_ideas#Laptop as flexible physical object (ruler, etc).
How Big Are Things? at 800dpi might show up life-size on the laptop.
NASA's Visible Earth images for OLPC countries - Possible demo content?
NASA's Visible Earth has images sorted by country. Perhaps they might make good demo fodder. Some are whole country, others just a feature. Some are topical (some fire, or erosion, etc). Most have descriptive text (in english). Some stereo pairs.
