I have read many postings about C compilers for the C=64, mainly Power-C
and Super C.  When I read about Power-C, I decided that this was the
compiler that I would buy.  Now, I have been reading more about Super C
from Abacus.

I would like to know which complier is better for learning the C language
on the Commodore 64?  Which compiler resembles standard ANSI C?  How easy
is it to port code from these compilers to other computers (i.e. Turbo-C
on an IBM PC)?  How simple is the editing/compiling/linking process?

Any suggestions/comments on these two compilers (or others) would be
greatly appreciated!
