Reporter:  Senator Quayle -  If you were suddenly called upon to make the Lattice C
		    compiler ANSI compatible, in the unfortunate circumstance
		    of the death of the president, would your compiler 
		    (version 5.0), be ANSI compatible?

Is Lattice 5.0 going to be *fully* ANSI compatible -yes or no ?

How could it be *fully* compatible with a standard that doesn't yet
exist ? (:-))
