It's called "tiny C", it runs on 8-bit micros (8080 under CP/M). There's also a later version called "tiny C two", which is a compiler. I think tiny C costs around $100, and includes a manual with complete source listings of the interpreter. You could probably find ads for it in Dr. Dobbs or Microsystems. I've never used tiny C, so I don't know how good it is. I've heard that the syntax is non-standard (something about semicolons being option). I'm sorry I can't provide any more information. Please note that the tiny C family is not the same as the "small C" family, which is a set of C compilers for the 8080. The source code for Small C and Small C 2 was published in Dr. Dobbs a few years ago. Small C is public domain, Small C 2 is copyrighted (but I think it may be distributed as long as it's not for profit), and tiny C and tiny C 2 are both proprietary products. Just out of curiousity, why are you interested in interpreted C? Have fun! JR -- JR (John Rogers) UUCP: fortune!jr, forcm5!jr, proper!jr CompuServe: 70410,213 MCI Mail: jrhpp
