Message-ID: <410@moncol.UUCP> Date: Thu, 4-Jul-85 14:06:21 EDT Article-I.D.: moncol.410 Posted: Thu Jul 4 14:06:21 1985 Date-Received: Sat, 6-Jul-85 05:35:02 EDT Organization: Monmouth College, West Long Branch, NJ 07764 Lines: 48 Xref: utcs net.lang.c:5382 net.micro:10619 net.micro.pc:4443 Looking throught the new PC-World, I came across an add for a C compiler from a company called Ecosoft Inc. It was billed as a full C compiler for $49.95. Features include: * Full K&R C compiler that supports all data types and operators (except bit fields) * 8087 co-processor support using a single library * A robust standard library with over 150 functions, including trancendentals, color, and others. * OBJ output for linking with Link * Error messages in English * Easy-to-read and complete user's manual The address of the company: Ecosoft Inc. 6413 N. College Avenue Indianapolis, IN 46220 (317) 255-6476 Has anyone out there heard of this company or, better yet, purchased this compiler? It seems too good to be true, but if it is, it would be the Turbo Pascal of C compilers. I am considering this product, but thought I'd check it out first. Thanks for any help. -- Name: John Ruschmeyer US Mail: Monmouth College, W.
