I was in a bookstore at lunch today and saw a C compiler called "Let's C" by Mark Williams Company. It caught my eye because of the price - it was only $67.50 (retails for $75)! It had quotes from two recent reviews in Byte and PC Tech Journal (favorable, of course). My question: Can it do everything it claims to do - i.e. "Full Kernigan & Ritchie C and extensions; Full UNIX compatibility and complete libraries"? I mean, it seems like a steal next to the MEGABUCKS Microsoft C compiler. Has anybody used Let's C? Anybody like it? Thanks. Jeff David
