The Compaq Compiler Kit was a collections of closed source compilers, optimized libraries and a debugger developed by Compaq for use on Linux. The compilers and debugger were a technology port of their Tru64 UNIX line of tools with only few missing features. The compiler driver program and compilers aimed at a high degree of compatibility with the GNU toolchain allowing it to be used as an in-place substitute of the GNU tools with regards to very little editing of makefiles.<ref name="compaq-c">[http://h30097.www3.hp.com/linux/compaq_c/index.html Compaq C for Linux Alpha]</ref>

==Individual parts of the kit==
* Compilers
** ccc – the C compiler.
