+This is the lwcc C compiler for lwtools. It was written using various other
+C compilers as guides. Special thanks to the developers of the PCC compiler.
+While none of the actual code from PCC was actually used, much of compiler
+itself served as a template for creating lwcc.
+
+This directory is arranged as follows:
+
+driver/
+
+This contains the source for the front end driver program which will be
+called "lwcc" and is the public face of the compiler. The lwcc program
+itself provides various options that are largely compatible with unix C
+compilers like gcc. It should be noted that the internal interface between
+the lwcc driver and its back end programs (the preprocessor and compiler
+proper) is unspecified and subject to change without notice. The assembler
+and linker (lwasm, lwlink) do have defined public interfaces are are not
+likely to change substantially.
+
+
+liblwcc/
+
+This contains any runtime libraries the compiler needs to support its
+output. This is usually assembly routines to support complex operations not
+directly supported by the CPU instruction set.
