0) Rantings and ravings

Disclaimer: Just so it is understood, the "rantings and ravings" are
my rantings and raving. My readers are refined and sophisticated and
would never rant or rave. I, on the other hand, sit in front of the
TV in torn underwear and drink beer out of the bottle.

=====> OK, I know this FAQ is long. Very long. Well... it's
ridiculously long. If you are inconvenienced or strenuously object to
the posting of this FAQ, please DON'T FLAME me or send me nasty mail.
Just think what I have to go through. This FAQ takes a lot of my
time, of which I have very little to spare. I'm open for suggestions.
I've considered the following:
- splitting it up into smaller parts
- eliminating certain sections which may no longer be relevant -
the web and search engines certainly seem to make a lot of this
FAQ obsolete (or am I mistaken on this?)
- not posting it to the newsgroups and just turning this
whole mess into a [large] web page (the problem with this
is that I don't have a web site)
- forgetting about it all together and reminding my kids that I'm
their father (if you all tell me to go packing, I'll gladly
fold up shop and devote more time to family, friends, and
personal hygiene)
I would be happy to hear ideas on how this FAQ could be improved for
the reader. If it makes MY job easier, then that's even better.


OK, with that out of the way, let's get on with it...


Well, it's finally here. A free C compiler for the 8051. Featured in
Dr. Dobb's August 1997 issue, Andy Yuen's Retargetable Concurrent
Small C (RCSC) is based on James E. Hendrix' lengendary Small C. A
previous iteration of RCSC, Concurrent Small C was introduced in the
August 1996 issue of Dr. Dobbs. With the release of this compiler,
Andy Yuen is very likely to become a folk hero.

So, why are you still reading this? The FAQ will wait! First download
a copy of RCSC. You can get it from: http://www.ddj.com or
ftp://ftp.mv.com/pub/ddj. Then go out and find a copy of Dr. Dobb's
August 1997 issue.
