/* Written 1:53 pm Sep 24, 1987 by alexande@drivax.UUCP in comp.sys.ibm.pc */ I have been testing Version 3.08 of the Datalight Optimum-C compiler by attempting to recompile the MicroEMACS V30 sources. The results have not been good. The compiler crashed or produced internal error messages on more than half of the source files compiled. .... Mark Alexander ...{hplabs,seismo,sun,ihnp4}!amdahl!drivax!alexande /* End of text from uicsrd:comp.sys.ibm.pc */ I have to agree with Mark on his assessment of the Datalight compiler. It's buggy. In addition, I had a horrible time with their customer service, which I actually rate much worse than the compiler itself. All of which contributes to the fact that I am now a happy Turbo C user....
