I am looking for a C compiler for an Apple //c with some Unix utilities attached. I am aware of an old product called AZTEC C65 but I'm not sure it is still available. I'm wanting to spend anywhere in the $50 - 200 range. Any ideas or recommendations would be appreciated. Stan Seago UUCP: ...ihnp4:osiris:fthood:sseago

Aztec C from Manx Software Systems (Shrewsbury, NJ I think) is indeed still available. The newest release is for ProDOS with DOC 3.3 cross-development support. I use it and find it better than one might have guessed. Manx advertises in several home computer mags.

They have several different versions, the most expensive version is the developer version. It has a Unix-like command shell with a limited exec language. The developer version will compile to either Dos or Prodos. It'sOs libraries are pretty complete, and it supports separate compilation, libraries and linking. It doesn't have make or lint but it does hacvve the preprocessor. My major criticism of this package is that it has slow screen handling. The screen routines are written in C and they run everything through an ADM-3A terminal emulator so that the same screen commands work on all of the Manx C compilers. Manx makes the Aztec C compiler. They advertise in byte and usually in the Apple // specific magazines. Rick Fincher ranger@ecsvax
