Howdy!

	I have a few questions that I hope some kind folks out there in
modem land can answer:


	Is C fast enough to write a BBS program in?  I have seen Pro BBS
(the source is public domain), and the author says that it is unacceptably
slow.  Is this because of his style, or because of the language.

	I have been hacking away in Assembly, seeing what I can do with it.
If there is any way to write the sucker in C, I would prefer that -- as it
is easier.  BUT, I will write it in assembly if need be.  Which brings me
to my last question:

	How do I include assembly code in-line in Manx C.  My trials have been
failures.  How do I address the C variables from the assembly portion.  Any
comments or examples would be very much appreciated.  THANKS!
