- Not to knock, but becuase your happy with it doesn't make it ansi
- compliant. Although there is a switch in most of the borland packages
- I've seen (three to date), that will allow processing of k&r, ansi,
- (something else), and native borland. Is there some problem with the
- compiance level of the ansi setting?
