Hello world,

I've seen various mentions on our own internal network (Easynet) about
the various C compilers for the Macintosh. Has anyone see a complete
(up to date) listing, that covers such topics such as:

	1) compilation speed NOT USING A HARD DISK
	2) linker intelligence
	3) adherence to K&R
	4) produces 'clickable' applications
	5) supports float & double
	6) supports TYPEDEF
	7) for that matter passing structs by ref?

I'm new to the world of Macintosh (a VAX/VMS hacker for some time), and am
familiar with lattice, CIC on ms-dos;
