This downloads standalone MSVC compiler, linker & other tools, also headers/libraries from Windows SDK into portable folder, without installing Visual Studio. Has bare minimum components - no UWP/Store/WindowsRT stuff, just files & tools for native desktop app development.

Run py.exe portable-msvc.py and it will download output into msvc folder. By default it will download latest available MSVC & Windows SDK from newest Visual Studio.

You can list available versions with py.exe portable-msvc.py --show-versions and then pass versions you want with --msvc-version and --sdk-version arguments.

To use cl.exe/link.exe first run setup_TARGET.bat - after that PATH/INCLUDE/LIB env variables will be updated to use all the tools as usual. You can also use clang-cl.exe with these includes & libraries.

To use clang-cl.exe without running setup.bat, pass extra /winsysroot msvc argument (msvc is folder name where output is stored).

// float->sRGB8 conversions - two variants.
// by Fabian "ryg" Giesen

// I hereby place this code in the public domain.
//
// Both variants come with absolute error bounds and a reversibility and monotonicity
// guarantee (see test driver code below). They should pass D3D10 conformance testing
// (not that you can verify this, but still). They are verified against a clean reference
// implementation provided below, and the test driver checks all floats exhaustively.
