[ How do you spell SUPPORT ...? I spell it: L A T T I C E ! ! ! ]
Happened to check on the Lattice BBS today, to see when the patch to v5.04
would be available. Guess what? "It's in there."
Short description:
Current Lattice FIX Packages
============================
Name Date Product Description
============= ========= ========= ===================================
FIX504A.ARC 12/01/89 Amiga C Fix for CPR 1.04 displaying floats
32,441 BYTES 5.04 and corrected library modules for
getenv, strtol, stch_i, cxv35/cxvfd.
Interestingly, a couple of the files in the .arc have datestamps of Feb 01,
1990. Wonder if that means this patch is "ahead of it's time" ... :-)
Thanks for the support to all the Lattice/SAS folks out there!

I attended the World of Commodore (Toronto) yesterday (Sat.), where Lattice had a booth set up. They were giving out nifty little screwdrivers with the following motto affixed: "Lattice has the tools you need!" <cute> They had a great deal on C++. With the student discount, the price goes right down to $150, so I picked up a copy. They claimed that Cfront2.0 is presently being worked on (no exact date of completion is known), and a native C++ compiler is planned for a significant speed improvement. I have always worked with Manx Aztec C, and I still like the more Unix-y feel of the compiler. I also prefer sdb over cpr. But I've got to admit, Lattice sure does put in a great deal of effort to please its customers while Manx does virtually nothing. I can't even get Manx to acknowledge my existence after sending in my registration a year ago... <sigh> Ben -- Ben Eng | ben@contact.uucp _or_ ben@ziebmef.mef.org 150 Beverley St. Apt #1L | Bix: jetpen ^^^-down for repair?
