Even better, get their PowerC Compiler, which is a full-blown ANSI-C compiler
with a function library that includes the SYSV extensions and most of the
functions (except for graphics :( ) that are included with Microsoft and
Turbo C.  Plus, it's quick, generates small tight code, and includes the
greate manual and tutorial... still only $19.95 plus $5 shipping and handling.

For another $19.95 they have a wonderful debugger, and the Library Source
Code is available for only $10.  They used to have a bundle price for the 
compiler, source, and debugger.  (MIX claims that their PowerC commpiler is
faster and generates smaller .EXE files than MS or Turbo C.)

Their address is:  MIX Software; 1132 Commerce Dr.; Richardson, TX 75081.  They
do have a US watts number.

I'm not associated with MIX Software, just a satisfied customer.  (I've got to order the latest upgrade ($5) -- it's supposed to have more graphics.)
