Maybe, but the original poster is talking about a compiler, not a converter,
and I don't know any compiler sold without documentation.
I meant here (see the newsgroup line) for the MS-DOS world.  On UNIX,
you could have the same compiler for a full school and no idea were is the
doc, but PC network are just too small to have a lot of software
available and no idea where to get doc about it.

Anyway, you can continue the work of a predecessor who lived with the docs,
so I give the benefits of doubt to the original poster.
