Small-C **does** produce files that are to be compiled with M80
and linked with L80 (at least Small-C from SMC211OB.LBR does). The
process goes somethine like this, assuming you've created file.C:
A>CC file -O
A>M80 file			;M80 reads file.MAC
A>L80 file,CLIB/S,file/N/E	;L80 reads file.REL and the C library,
				;makes file.COM
Look for a file L80-M80.LBR on your system; it has (somewhat cursory)
documentation for l80/M80. If you can't get it, I can send it via
E-mail, UUENCODEd.
