I've used the DeSmet C for a while and have had 2 problems.

1.  The program compiles and links, then hangs when it runs.
Cntl-Alt-Dlt does not work, I have to turn the PC off to fix.
This may be my software mistake, but has occured with different
programs all with large arrays.  Incidentally, the programs
have run fine on smaller arrays and on minis (VAX and MAXI).

2.  The scanf function I have goes to the next line after execution,
thus I have a tough time reading arrays in a simple loop when
there are multiple numbers per line.

Other than that, it seems fast and the screen editor is
rather primitive but easy to use.
