[bitc-dev] Some newbie questions about bitc

Now that I've compiled bitcc I have some questions about bitc and bitcc.
I'm looking for an alternative to C/asm programming for embedded
systems. I need a language that compiles to C (just plain C, no
dependencies on any libraries, if I don't use terminal io in a program
the output should not require printf, etc) and integrates well with
existing C and assembler code.
Is the output of bitcc just plain C? Many other compilers that compile
to C need libraries of gcc-specific stuff. Does it use any advanced
features of the C language like the C99 types for complex numbers or
structures as return values or double precision floating point numbers?
If yes, will these always be needed or only if I use certain parts of
the bitc language?
Are there any bitc tutorials?
How efficient is the bitcc output? I don't have much RAM (1K) or ROM (32K).
Thanks
Philipp
