I called Manx Software Systems (201-780-3072), last month, to confirm that 
they still carried the CP/M version of Aztec C.  A man answered the phone 
as if it were his home.  Uh-oh.  I asked about Aztec C for CP/M.  He said
that the company is now called "MCS", and they no longer support CP/M.  I 
was so disappointed that I forgot to ask if they'd put the CP/M version 
into the public domain.  

I've since bought BDS C 1.60c through Jay Sage.  I wish there was some way 
to get intrinsic floating point, perhaps as a compiler option, but it is 
otherwise a sound, fast compiler.  If anyone else is running BDS C under 
CDOS, I'd be interested in hearing from them.
