   This is Dave Kessner's lib, on SIMTEL:

   Directory PD1:<MSDOS.C>
   LIB2.ZIP  B   18779  910324  ASYNC communications library callable from 'C'

   I use it (in fact, I donated a little code to the package), and it's
   darned solid!

How about for C++?

     perl -e '$x = 1/20; print "Just my \$$x! (adjusted for inflation)\n"'

it's not very "clever", but how about "Support your local Emergency
Medical Services"
