     I believe the newest version of NorthC has much better screen output.
 I'm not really sure.  I'd have to try it out again.
 Actually, I think that the screen output speed is more of a factor of
 the libraries being linked in.  As ZC, DICE, and PDC all use amiga.lib,
 it's my guess that there isn't going to be much of a difference between
 them.  SAS also.  NorthC uses it's own replacement for amiga.lib and
 the consequence is speed.  Please correct me if I'm wrong.
