Turbo-C has been released in Germany by Heimsoft, having been developed
there under a direct contract with a third party compiler company.
Atari Sunnyvale received a copy and has made some comments to the
originators.
Distribution rights for the US are/were being negotiated by Sig Hartmann of
Atari with Philippe Kahn of Borland. I understand that business issues are
the sticking point at this juncture, but Sig would have more information.
If I hear of any progress I'll post it, natuerlich!
