Yes. Small-C.
Get the book "Dr Dobb's Toolbox of C". This contains reprints of the
original Dobbs articles. The code is CP/M specific, but a MS-DOS version is
available on all programming-language oriented bulletin boards.
Can anyone on the West Coast give Dave a local BBS? If not, try PC-BOSS at
1-201-568-7293 (New Jersey).  .
