Subject: Comments on Whitesmith's C

Some comments on Whitesmith's:  

	(1)	It is very, very slow on CP/M systems.  The system
		I use has a Priam winchester and 32k of disk buffering.
		I would hate to see it on a floppy based system.

	(2)	It is a "full" C (e.g. has floating point in the language).

	(3)	It's faster (execution) than BDS C.  For compilation,
		BDS C is far faster.

	(4)	The entire I/O library is "wrong" - almost nothing
		is compatible with Bell C.
