I want to add some extension features to my program and this would
require that i bundle a small c compiler with my program. On Unix it
seems that tiny-c can do this, but i don't know about windows.

lcc-win can be bundled with your application.
You can contact me for prices and conditions.

Would it? Is there an external requirement that the extension language
be C? If not, then you could make the extension language something
comparatively simple to parse and build your own tiny compiler for it.

I assume by tiny-c you mean tinycc. If so, it is also available for
Windows.

May be to you enough use some scripting language such as `lua', which
engine may be used at runtime from shared lib (about 400 KiB),
available on many platform.

Or the OP could use one of the almost-C interpreters which are
embeddable. I have come across at least a couple.

Thanks, i checked that tinycc is working on windows and can generate
windows-dll's. Thats good. I'm already using lua for some more high
level scripting but some parts are speed critical enough that they
require the full power of compiled code and easy c string operations.

I will check if tinycc works reliable for my use case otherwise i
might
check mingw or contact jacob. Or does anybody know about another small
and free c compiler?

MinGW is ok, but it has to be determined which files need
to be added to the bundle. AFAIK MinGW needs more than one
*.exe file. There are also such things as header files
and libraries.
