I know nothing about Z88DK either, except that it is at https://github.com/z88dk/z88dk and appears to be an active project. It seems worth looking into. This article (from 2016) explains some of the compiler options: https://feilipu.me/2016/09/16/z80-c-code-development-with-eclipse-and-z88dk/ Personally I am a fan of supporting as many compilers as possible. Every compiler reads the code a little bit differently and can notice and warn about different things. The more compilers you can build and run your code with, the better the chances that you catch and fix the common mistakes. If we become a project that only builds on GCC and/or clang, then I think we will miss out on a lot of valuable diagnostics. Cheers, Nathan
