MIX C: Difference between revisions

Revision as of 12:42, 22 January 2016

A simple, low budget K&R compatible compiler from MIX Software that was available for CP/M and DOS, partially inspired by Turbo Pascal and primarily intended for teching purposes. However unlike its inspiration the MIX C compiler was almost unbearably slow and produced slow executables, which led it to being replaced in 1988 with the Power C compiler.

This was a package that included all the products the MIX Software company sold in the latter half of the 80's and retailed at at 100 USD
