if with c-programming you mean both C and C++ there really is only two
options (that is still developed)

1) GCC (from geekgadgets.org)
2) StormC4

if you mean only C you can add
3) VBCC

the others really are to old to bother with (I don't know about
Hisoft/Maxxon C++)
SAS/C does not support some very important stuff in C++
Dice is not ANSI-C compliant (might make or break some programs)

With kind regards,
Jan-Erik Karlsson
