I connected with the C-Power bbs last night at (416) 276-6811,
Mississauga, Ontario (Toronto). It runs 1200 baud max, n,8,1 on C64
Punter bbs software as node 11 on the Punternet.

It seems to give you 30 minutes right off (I never called there
before). There are about 170k of messages or somewhat less than 6000
forty column lines of capture for the whole base. I used an XT with
hard drive and read the messages after setting continuous read
"cont" "0". The read took about 28 minutes at 1200.

Many of the older messages seem to be to "all" as answers to
commonly asked questions:
C Power is a C language  compiler  for
the C64 and C128. A newer release of C
Power  by   the   Spinnaker   software
company is being sold under  the  name
Power C.  Because  of  this  you  will
often see  the  compiler  referred  to
here as C Power C.

Other messages say there is a number of files for C Power C
available for downloading.

I passed your message on to them a few days ago. Perhaps someone has
already replied. 

I know nothing about C or C Power C but I have been looking for
information on it for a friend who runs an MS-DOS and Commodore
oriented bbs in eastern Ontario. I usually check this conference and
can pass messages easily to C-Power bbs as a local call. Be warned
that sometimes I don't get a chance to turn on the modem for weeks
but there are probably others who also could pass messages back and
forth.
