16-bit real-mode code
Hello I ponder about writing a "i386 16bit realmode" gcc backend as my master thesis - which would be usefull for generating 16-bit bios code needed by the virtual machine developed at my university. Having never programmed any compiler-related stuff and having a strict deadline (after 6 months) i would appreciate some commments about the complexity of such a venture. thanks in advance (please reply (also) directly to me, im not subscribed) ciao josef
