MKS Make is outstanding.  Actually, MKS Toolkit is terrific and
MKS Make fits in well with MKS Toolkit so it's kindof neat doing
both.  Programmer's Shop has an educational price on MKS
products.  MKS Make comes pre-loaded with a C orientation but I was
able to fluently use it with Turbo Pascal.  MKS Toolkit was the
best bit of OS-type software I ever got for a PC compatible -- never
mind the gunk Microsoft tries to dish out.

If you need it, MKS RCS closes off the MKS trio and gives you the
best development environment I know of on the PC.  Now if only
they would write 386-aware versions...
