Guidelines Software has a version of C++ than runs under MS-DOS.  It is
$195 and comes with a copy of the AT&T release notes and the book by Bjarne
Stroustrup.  Here is the address:

Guidelines Software
P.O. Box 749
Orinda, CA  94563
(415) 254-9393

It is advertised in Computer Language Magazine and Dr. Dobbs Journal.

It requires 640K of RAM and a hard disk, and you need to have MicroSoft C
version 3.0 or 4.0.

You can try it for 30 days, and return it for a full refund if you are not
satisfied.

Is it good?  HELL YES!  And at $195 you can't beat it!

(I *am* affiliated with Guidelines Software.  I am one of the two founders :-)
