[....] Some time ago there was a request for information/review of the various CP/M C compilers. I would like to see a posting of the various compilers with their pros and cons. I would be happy to collect this info and post a summary, but I suspect this has alread been done (maybe I missed it?). I have used the Aztec compiler with complete satisfaction, MIX is a new one, I have the BDS 1.50 compiler sitting on the shelf and have not yet given it a try. I have some projects up and coming where I will want to ROM the code, any suggestions on whether Aztec or BDS would be better for this? Actually any hints on ROMing C code for a Z80 controller kind of project would be happily accepted. ttrebisky@as.arizona.edu (Internet)
