Although it probably hasn't seen much distribution in Usenet/Internet circles yet, there's an excellent alternative to both Tiny C and Small C in a little jewel called Micro-C. It's shareware and, like the others, registration brings full source (very well written I should add), but it's actually a useful compiler! Coming with interchangable code generators for 80x86, 6809, 68HC11, 8085/Z-80/64180, and 6502, the as-delivered 80x86 version includes useful library functions including, fast windowing, a TSR package, interrupt-driven serial I/O, and others. It has an excellent optimizer and compiles much quicker than the Hendrix compiler, producing much tighter executables. Execution speeds are typically much faster as well. All in all, highly recommended. I'll call you and see about getting you a copy. The author's name is Dave Dunfield and is most accessible via Bix (ID: ddunfield).
