A subset of C. The original compiler, written in C by RonCain, appeared in Dr. Dobb's Journal. James E. Hendriximproved and extended the original compiler and published "TheSmall-C Handbook". Both these compilers produced 8080assembly code.A Small-C compiler based on RatC produced 6502 assemblycode for the BBC Microcomputer. It was written in Small-Cand bootstrapped using Zorland C on an Amstrad PC1512under MS-DOS 3.2, then transferred onto a BBC Micro usingKermit. The compiler can be used to cross-compile 6502code from an MS-DOS host, or as a resident Small-Ccompiler on a BBC Micro. It runs on 68000, 6809, VAX,8080, BBC Micro and Zilog Z80.Posted to comp.sources.unix volume 5.

Platidiam
- An inorganic water-soluble platinum complex. After undergoing hydrolysis, it reacts DNA produce both intra interstrand crosslinks. These crosslinks appear to impair replication and transcription of DNA. The cytotoxicity cisplatin correlates with cellular arrest in G2 phase cell cycle.
