Notes on Writing Portable Programs in C

[George V. Reilly]

The eighth revision of `Notes on Writing Portable Programs in C'
is now available.  The authors are A. Dolenc [ado at sauna.hut.fi],
A. Lemmke, D. Keppel [pardo at cs.washington.edu], and
G. V. Reilly [gvr at cs.brown.edu].

The abstract says:
	This documents describes the features and non-features of
	different C preprocessors, compilers, and environments.  As
	such, it is an incomplete document, growing as information
	is gathered.  It contains some material concerning ANSI C
	but it is not a substitute for the Standard itself. We
	assume the reader is familiar with the C programming language.

The document follows in the next four messages: `portableC.sty',
`portableC.bib', `part1.tex', and `part2.tex'.  Parts 1 and 2
should be concatenated together to form `portableC.tex'.

The document can be obtained via anonymous FTP from sauna.hut.fi
[130.233.251.253] in ~ftp/pub/CompSciLab/doc.  The files
`portableC.tex', `portableC.sty', `portableC.bib', and
`portableC.ps.Z' are the LaTeX source and style files, BibTeX and
the compressed PostScript, respectively. Alternatively, there is a
site in the US from which one can obtain all four files,
cs.washington.edu [128.95.1.4] in ~ftp/pub/cport.tar.Z. All files
are in the public domain.

Comments, suggestions, flames, eggs, and requests for copies via
e-mail should be directed to gvr at cs.brown.edu during December, and
ado at sauna.hut.fi thereafter.

To print the document:
	latex portableC
	bibtex portableC
	latex portableC
	latex portableC

	lpr -d portableC.dvi	# to a printer (under Unix)
