Hey, this is my site, first published 2009! This is the venerable cdecl enhanced with blocks support.

It used to be a shared host with a PHP script shelling out to the cdecl executable, written in K&R C. Now it's that same executable running on AWS Lambda.

Yes Lambda really will run arbitrary ELF binaries.

Didnt know what blocks are , it seems it's an apple extension.
Yup, they’re an extension to C/Objective-C/C++ implemented in Clang: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blocks_(C_language_extension...
Thanks for creating it, it really helps with learning C.
Nice work.

Could you run it as a preprocessor macro?
