I'm looking for one, just to do basic C programming, looking for one I've seen the following: Turbo C, MS C, and quick C. But why is quick C only about $60 and the others are around $300, what does the more expensive ones offer that the Quick C doesn't. Is it more libraries, a super-editor, a better compiler?? Could you send me some answers and suggestions of what I really need. Joe Sosa jsosa@encore.com
