Good Z80 disassembler/decompiler on modern equipment?
Their answers are not specific to Z80, of course, but two interesting disassemblers mentioned there feature support for Z80 and may prove useful too. … Over the years, many small(er) disassemblers and disassembling tools have been developed either generally for Z80, or for specific computers based on Z80. …

Did anyone ever use the extra set of registers on the Z80?
The key to efficient programming on Z80 is to use registers as much as possible. … I can easily believe that designers of Z80 intended the use of the alternative set of registers as an efficient way of context switching. …

TI-86 sound capabilities
No, TI-86 does not have a purpose-built sound output. However, it has a "link port" (2.5mm Mono Jack connector). People seem to usually connect this jack to a piezo-buzzer or to a mono headphones, see …

Why do C to Z80 compilers produce poor code?
If you try translating C into Z80, you'll see that Z80 index registers and stack don't behave quite as you expect. … In other words, Z80 does not fit the C paradigm. …

How much benefit should be expected on a more advanced compiler for z80/r800 based computers?
To make matters worse, a lot of paradigms for efficient Z80 coding are really not fitting into C. … Just like every Z80 coder, I would love to see a compiler with a bit of intuition for the use of Z80 registers, but I do not hold much hope. …
