Hi Walter, hi Jan!

I really like this small C compiler, but wish to run it in plain DOS. What's
the reason for no longer making a DOS compiler?

It's far too big to fit in 16 bits anymore.

32 bit w/ DOS extender would be enough for me. ;-)

Currently I have to use the free HX DOS extender from
http://www.japheth.de/, but I'd like to avoid that.

Why not just use Win95 or similar?

'Interesting' idea. Maybe I should use another compiler at all. Sorry, but I
don't
like Windows, but DOS.
