Yes it does. Only a German-language manual exists, though. If your German is up to it it's a great product compared to the rest. It is sold by the representative of Borland in the BRD, Heimsoeth. They're reputable, and they announce updates to registered customers abroad. Turbo-C is the fastest-compiling system for the ST, can be run from a single floppy system+RAM disk (using a shoe-horn), has an online manual, produces good code (in the same league as GNU C) quickly, assembler optional, source debugger announced for early next year. Only Megamax Laser-C is easier to use and faster, but it's not ANSI-compatible (yet?). Oh, yes: builtin make (only for C and assembler files), editor, etc. PLUS: it is one of the cheapest around here. I paid around DM 250,- on a fair, normal prices are higher, but $200,- should do it from the US.
