In the early days Lattice had a bad reputation for speed of compilation &
program execution, among others. This has been improved undoubtedly, but I
don't know how much. Best by far is Pure-C (used to be Turbo-C ST) but you'll
have to be able to understand (and stand) german. I worked with Laser C before
that, and liked it a lot. Debugger was verry nice. Can't mention one single
aspect where Turbo C doesn't run rings around Laser, though.

Simple and easy. For example I will show you some lines from my DESKTOP.INF:
...
#P 03 04 C:\GUCK.TTP@ *.*@
#D FF 01 @ *.*@
#G 03 FF *.APP@ @
#G 03 FF *.PRG@ @
#P 03 FF *.TTP@ @
#F 03 04 *.TOS@ @
#G 03 04 D:\ARC\EXE_2_60.PRG@ *.LZH@
#G 03 04 D:\ARC\EXE_2_60.PRG@ *.LZS@
#G 03 04 D:\ARC\EXE_2_60.PRG@ *.ARC@
#G 03 04 D:\ARC\EXE_2_60.PRG@ *.ZOO@
#G 03 04 D:\ARC\EXE_2_60.PRG@ *.SFX@
#G 03 04 D:\ARC\STZIP.PRG@ *.ZIP@
#P 03 04 C:\BIN\EH_MGIF.TTP@ *.GIF@
...
As you see, I have simply copied the lines containing the '#G'
command and replaced the extensions at the end of the lines.
But be beware of your text-editor. It must not cut off bytes
arbitrary, because there is a trailing <SPACE> at the end of
each line, which is very important to TOS (As your editor might
think it's not :-)).
Also I recognized a <CTRL-Z> (26hex) at the end of the DESKTOP.INF
file. As I removed it, I could not see any difference when working
on my ST, but perhaps it might be better to leave it there.

Subject: Wanted: ST Mono System
To: Info-Atari16@naucse.cse.nau.edu
I'm looking for a 1040STf Monochrome system to do some experimenting
on... I'd prefer 2+ megs of RAM, but even the base 1 meg system will
do. I do *not* want non-working STs, or decked-out systems. This
system is for experimentation, so I'd like to keep it inexpensive.
