re: EDST, C compiler and help

This is my first attempt at proper E-Mail, so if this is read by anyone I'll
be amazed. Can I talk anyone into buying a copy of my editor EDST for the ST,
its very cheap 12 pounds sterling, features include:
o     4 Windows open at any time
o     Full GEM access
o     Cut and Paste
o     search/Replace
o     Auto backup and cumulative editting time saved (option)
o     Full MS-DOS like shell runs in a window, allows you to run compilers
      linkers etc. Full list of commands, including batch files with
      expression evaluation. I use it with Megamax C all the time, but
      Lattice et al should be no problem.

Now for a few queries:

1. Does anyone have a full list of ST OS bugs, and how to get round them

2. I have a Citizen DSDD drive that keeps giving read errors and won't format
   past about track 70. This all seemed to stem from using PC-Ditto, which
   seems to really hammer drives.

I am currently writing a new C compiler based on the Turbo C style, this
should retail at about 55 pounds sterling and should be the fastest compiler
around. Anybody have any suggestions for features they would like? (any
resonable offer considered). This will also be ported to the Amiga and the
ST version should be around early next year ('cause most of it is written).

Has anyone out there in ST land had any experience with Turbo-ST the
software blitter, I've heard it can be a bit flakey.
