Be sure to check out the MIX C compiler.  When I called in my VISA order about
4 weeks ago, the CPM-80 version was ~3 weeks from shipping, seems they
wanted to
update it to include features they'd added to the IBM-PC version.  I received
the CPM-80 version last week along with a very excellent manual.  The tutorial
is the best written introduction to C that I've found and I've looked at and/or
purchased many.  Now if the compiler is anywhere near as good as the manual...
