Zortech C++ is a 16- and 32-bit C and C++ development system for DOS, Windows and OS/2. The system comprised an IDE with editor, compiler, profiler and debugger.

History

In 1988 Zortech Ltd released the first version of the development system for DOS based on the earlier Zortech C.

Version 2 edition supported OS/2 and DOS or a cheaper system that only supported DOS.

Version 3 of the compiler 16 and 32 bit versions for DOS and 16 bit version Windows and OS/2 came in the same package. Also version 2.1 for SCO Unix was offered.

Bought by Symantec in 1992 who released version 3.1 with 32-bit OS/2 support. The Symantec version includes the rather spiffy Multiscope Debugger.

The built in editor shipped with the package was based on MicroEMACS.

-==Description==
+{{Software
-A 16 and 32 bit C and C++ development system for DOS, Windows and OS/2, the system compromised an IDE with editor, compiler, profiler and debugger. Note that with version 2 you could buy an integrated system that supported OS/2 and DOS or a cheaper system that only supported DOS and in some countries only the cheaper version was distributed. With version 3 of the compiler 16 and 32 bit versions for DOS and 16 bit version Windows and OS/2 came in the same package. The company also had ports for the Macintosh and SCO Unix. Bought by Symantec in the early 90's who released a version 3.1 as a separate compiler for 32 bit OS/2 only.
