Since several people from around the world have contacted me concerning
an earlier posting I am replying to the net - part of previous posting:

I have managed to glean off those who have so kindly sent me information
that there are later versions of the C Compiler and that it is probable
that Sesame is still operating from the given address.

I have not managed to ascertain the standard of the latest release or which
version is actually the latest. For those who wrote asking for a copy and/or
where they could get hold of a copy I can only say that I got it from
Lancaster University's Public Domain Archive (UK). I believe that you can
only access this site by JANET. This archive runs a mail server service
accessible as archive-server@uk.ac.lancs.pdsoft. However the copy here is
not (as far as I can tell) the latest version of this software and I am afraid
that I do not know where its primary distribution site is.
