Most likely, the lack of a device logically named 'C'.  ASSIGN SY: C:
will take care of that.  Of course, probably it is looking for
C:STDIO.H as an #include file when it dies.

RU C:CC file.c/A	! will chain from CC to AS automatically and delete

Is there anything else I should know about

LINK file,C:(SUPORT,CLIB)/bottom:2000	! will take care of most cases.

Documentation is available from the DECUS library, and amounts to several
hundred pages.  Either hard copy or RUNOFF source form.  If you have trouble
getting it, ask me for more help.  I suppose a self-addressed stamped
magtape could be dealt with, but the library is the best place to go.
