I gather from elsewhere that your target is a Z80? If so, you need at least
an '-mz80' on the command line, thus you would use...
sdcc -mz80 putchar.c
On your code - I would comment that you're using a '=' on your if comparison,
you probably mean '=='. I would simplify the pointer declarations too with a
typedef, then things might be clearer for the compiler. If you're declaring
an absolute address in memory, then you should use something like this array
declaration I used on a recent project...
typedef unsigned char byte_t;
volatile byte_t __at 0xD000 VideoRAM[25*40];
The 'volatile' keyword may or may not be appropriate in your application, but
the '__at' allows you to declare an absolute address. The byte_t type I
declare is useful because 8-bit signed integers (chars) aren't all that
useful much of the time. If you need a signed integer, you will probably want
short or int.
