Subject: Urgent info/suggestions for CP/M 3+ (Z80)???

Hello.  I know this is a ridiculus rush, but I'm left with little choice.
I have literally two to three weeks to learn everything I can about the 
CP/M software available for my computer's version of the OS, called in the
manual, "CP/M 3+", for the Commodore 128.  The processor used is the Z80,
without any math coprocessors or whatever else there is.  Several stores
have been unable to help me find the reference manual for the version I have,
and the I can't find any books in the campus library for my version.  I
don't even know what versions would be similar to the one I have or what 
versions came before and after it.  I have *very* little experience with 
it, so *absolutely anything* would be helpful and greatly appreciated.

The reason I am so desperately interested in the OS all of the sudden is it
seems to be the only chance I have of finding a *good* C compiler for my
computer.  Is there a C compiler for CP/M 3+ that conforms to the ANSI standard
or at least conforms completely to the K&R standard?  Is any of it available
from ftp?  Does anyone know of a source for the manual?

Knowing so little about the subject, if my post doesn't belong in the cpm
group, or I haven't given enough info or anything else is wrong, please tell
me...

Thanx,
Trever,
