I wrote a few tutorials for getting started with sdcc and the STM8/128-EVAL.
One shows how to set up I/O and a timer. It uses the 4 red LEDs as a 4-bit counter than increments exactly once per second: http://www.colecovision.eu/stm8/128-EVAL%20LED.shtml One shows how to set up the UART, and use it for standard I/O: It writes ''Hello World!'' using printf(): http://www.colecovision.eu/stm8/128-EVAL%20Serial.shtml With the accurate timer and serial I/O, we can run some benchmarks, such as Dhrystone and Whetstone and have the results reported on a terminal attached via a nullmodem cable: http://www.colecovision.eu/stm8/128-EVAL%20Dhrystone.shtml Philipp
