I am interested in getting a C compiler for a Z-100 (8088, MS-DOS, 2 5"
320KB floppy drives) and would appreciate comments on available ones,
particularly Computer Innovation's C86 and Mark DSmet's C88.  Are there any
public domain compilers available?

Comments on the following would be helpful:
. what do you like/dislike about your compiler?
. how much disk space, memory does the compiler+library occupy?
. how complete is the language implemented?
. is separate compilation supported?
. is the compiler fast, is the code compact, is the code fast?  -  do you have
to take a coffee break during a compilation?  -  how fast is "fast" and how
large is the code file for source programs of various sizes?
. what is the maximum program size?
. anything else of interest!

				Thanks for your help,
