I believe it is based on Jim Hendrix's > version for CP/M.... Jim Hendrix has his name on my version, and he wants $20 as a user fee (not $40, I was thinking of something else). Now, does anybody know whether Jim Hendrix actually stopped asking for money for Small-C? If he has a copyright on it, any version based on it (for any operating system) would have to be released by him to be in the public domain. Did he do that? If so, my documentation is obsolete (even though it was on a disk I bought only a few months ago). M. B.
