 I use Turbo C to develope and edit (use Help occasionally) DJGPP C programs.

 When I get so far I'll run it through Dj's C to see what it complains
about - maybe save some complaints and fix them .... Then back to TC ...


 I'll often #ifdef out __GNUC__ so it will run (and trace) and do some
preliminary testing under TurboC. Then back to gcc ...


 Now the GCC code is nearly ready to run (don't count chickens ... )
A last minute _FIX_ is done using Qedit - compile, execute, Yeah !


 The planned C interpretor will wreck this method - this is good ...

 Now if we only had an IDE (integrated development environment) where we
could edit, compile/Interpret, get context sensitive help ...
(Using all the GCC tools mushed together ;>  )
(With the editor in a seperate source so users can compile and link in 
thier favourite one if they don't want XYZ editor)
