Michael,
I got the original Amiga C compiler 3.01 (produced by Lattice, shipped
by CBM). It stunk. It produced bad code, guru'd during compiles, all sorts
of nasty stuff. So I then purchased Manx 3.2 and upgraded it everytime an
upgrade was available ending up with 3.6A. When Lattice 5.02 became
available, with all the "goodies", I purchased it and have been very happy
with it, with no intention of going back to Manx. Now that SAS has taken
over Lattice, I'll upgrade my Manx "just in case". I have very little
faith in the quality control of product that SAS has shown in the past.
