I have been using Walter Bright's libc code from Zortech-C for microcontrollers, where I care about code size more than anything else:

https://github.com/nklabs/libnklabs/blob/main/src/nkprintf_f... https://github.com/nklabs/libnklabs/blob/main/src/nkstrtod.c https://github.com/nklabs/libnklabs/blob/main/src/nkdectab.c

nkprintf_fp.c+nkdectab.c: 2494 bytes

schubfach.cc: 10K bytes.. the code is small, but there is a giant table of numbers. Also this is just dtoa, not a full printf formatter.

OTOH, the old code is not round-trip accurate.

Russ Cox should make a C version of his code..
