I can see how it resembles a cut down version of M2-Planet. I have seen the prototype code too, but that seems to have drifted from the current version of cc_x86. I'll see how I get on, I might try and cut down M2-Planet's C code to get a C equivalent of the current version of cc_x86 (which will probably help me to understand the... <matrix_bridge><cosinusoidally> Is there a reason cc_x86 and M2-Planet use a non-standard calling convention rather than x86 cdecl? Does that simplify the design? <oriansj>cosinusoidally: oh, I just wrote in a way that was easiest for me to remember and not make mistakes with the stack.
