Ken, you seem to really like Turbo C from the Germans. Have you tried
the Version 5 of the Lattice C from the English company Hisoft yet??
I am sure that others here would like to know what you think of the
vers 5 lattice c compiler.

I have asked my local Atari store to try to locate the Lattice C compiler, but
Michtron (who distributes other HiSoft products like WERCS and the C Interpreter)
does not distribute the Lattice C compiler here in the USA. So, my dealer is trying
to locate another source for it. Meanwhile, I wait.

Also, I hear that my dealer has a source for the commerical Flowcharting program
that is available in England. He says that he should be able to get it in a month
or so. I hope that it is as good as some of the flowcharting programs on the Mac, because
that is the only program that is out for the Mac that I can't find for the ST.

So, Ken have you tried the Lattice C vers 5 compiler? What do you think?

Thanks.
