The Amsterdam Compiler Kit is a cross-platform compiler and toolchain suite that is small, portable, extremely fast, and extremely flexible. It targets a number of low-end machines including the Z80, 8086 and 80386, but there are many other code generators available. It supports several languages, including ANSI C, Pascal and Modula-2, and contains integrated runtime libraries including a libc.

The maintainer, David Given states "I, dtrg, cannot honestly recommend using the ACK for production code unless as a stop-gap measure or unless the other benefits of the ACK (e.g. having a very lightweight turnkey toolchain is valuable to you) outweigh the code quality."

It’s similar to vi as both are modal editors with curses interfaces. However, it differs from vi in that it has the same command syntax as ed. For example, in se to escape from append mode, you’d enter a line containing a single period instead of the vi way of hitting the escape key.

se has a long history dating back to the early 1980s. Beginning in 2013, Thomas Cort undertook the task of modernizing the early code and build system to get the software working on recent POSIX operating systems. The code base was straight forward and only used facilities available 25 years prior, and as a result, with a few modifications, it runs on many modern operating systems. Thomas' primary motivation is to preserve this bit of computing history. His goals are to squash any remaining bugs and make se as portable as possible. No major new features will be added.

For a long time, we were unhappy with having to care about security issues and Linux distribution maintenance on our various Raspberry Pis.
Then, we had a crazy idea: what if we got rid of memory-unsafe languages and all software we don’t strictly need?
Turns out this is feasible. gokrazy is the result.
