Does anybody know where I can ftp a Public domain/ shareware C compiler
for MS-DOS systems? Any help/pointers would be appreciated.

My usual response when I see someone asking for a PD/Shareware C compiler, if what they want is a single copy for someone to learn C with, is to direct them toward a product called Mix C, from Mix Software. They run ads in postcard decks and in various computer magazines, but essentially you get a basic compiler, not terribly quick or fantastic in code generation, but which does support most of ANSI-C and you get a terrific manual and tutorial book... for just under $25 including shipping and handling. Singing off, UNIX:/etc/ping instantiated (Ping Huang).

Even better, get their PowerC Compiler, which is a full-blown ANSI-C compiler with a function library that includes the SYSV extensions and most of the functions (except for graphics :( ) that are included with Microsoft and Turbo C. Plus, it's quick, generates small tight code, and includes the greate manual and tutorial... still only $19.95 plus $5 shipping and handling. For another $19.95 they have a wonderful debugger, and the Library Source Code is available for only $10. They used to have a bundle price for the compiler, source, and debugger. (MIX claims that their PowerC commpiler is faster and generates smaller .EXE files than MS or Turbo C.) Their address is: MIX Software; 1132 Commerce Dr.; Richardson, TX 75081. They do have a US watts number. I'm not associated with MIX Software, just a satisfied customer. (I've got to order the latest upgrade ($5) -- it's supposed to have more graphics.)
