I've used probably most of the C compilers out (at least at one rev each :-),
and my preferred one is Aztec C.  Ecosoft C isn't bad, but the compiler has
an irritating habit of crashing on syntax errors!  I used BDS C 1.5 a fair
amount, it worked well but wasn't very "standard" - I'm told this is fixed
with their new v1.6. If so, it might be your best bet...
