- From your message I surmize you are working from a DOS platform. If this is

- the book that comes with it is fabulous. It includes a language tutorial,
- C language refrence, library function refrerence (400+ functions), and
- manuals for the compiler, linker, and utilities. Another $20.00 and you
- get the best debugger I have ever seen, but this is up to you.
