	There are actually two versions of Hyper C.  One runs under CDOS and
the other runs under any version of PRODOS 8. The CDOS version has its own
bastardized version of DOS 3.3, and compiles to P code, which is executed
by an interpreter that appears to be licensed from Apple.  The Prodos
version, which I am most familiar with, compiles to P code or machine code,
and includes a P code assembler and a 65C02 native code assembler.  All of
these products are useless without the manuals.

	I originally bought the Professionl package, which included source,
from WSM Group, Inc.  This company appears to be defunct, and their address
in Tucson, Arizona is no longer valid.  Unless the original principals of
WSM have released this product as Shareware,  it is legally a copyrighted
work belonging to the original authors/WSM Group etal.  Also, there is no
source for manuals except for those of us who originally bought the package.

	From looking at the fine print in the Technical Reference Manual it
would seem that there is nothing that prohibits me from copying the text as
long as I do it for free.  But there are quite a few pages.
