Is anyone besides me getting frustrated at the lack of LSC (or at least
MPW C) examples in MacTutor?  

The last 2 (or was it 3?) issue haven't had any C articles!!!  
Isn't C the language of the 80's, as well as the most popular
Mac programming language?

iHowever, they *do* consistently have Forth (gee, how many of us use that?), 
Basic, asm, and Pascal articles.  Pascal I can cope with, but Basic and 
Forth are pretty useless, as far as I'm concerned.  Sure, I can usually 
pick out the algorithm that the author is explaining, but this is a lot 
less useful than just typing in the code verbatim and using it in my 
LSC application.

If others agree with me, why don't you let MacTutor know?  I'm writing a letter
to David Smith (the publisher/editor), at:

	MacTutor
	P.O. Box 400
	Placentia, CA 92670
