NOTE: I HAVE INSTALLED BOTH LATTICE C PATCHES.

I just had the misfortune to call Lattice's Tech support line.
My problem was over two things.  First, on page 7-3 of the manual,
under the "Not enough memory" error message explanation it says
something like "if you get this error, try compiling with the -B
option to LC.  This invokes the big compiler, etc., etc."  Well,
whenever I tried to use it, it dies.  When I type:
  lc -B foo
I get:
  <compiler startup messages>
  Invalid option "--B"  (yes, that's two dashes)

Upon calling Lattice all they cpuld say was that "it should work" and
"try playing around with command line order."  Well, I did so, and if
I do 'lc foo -B' the -B is interpreted as a file to compile.  Sad
customer support number example number 1.  So, can anyone explain how
to use the damn -B option?

Problem 2:
I have the following code:
#include <stdio.h>
main()
{
  int i;
  puts("Enter any number to continue:\n");
  scanf("%d",&i);
}

When I run it, the "Enter..." message IS NOT PRINTED until I enter a
number and hit <CR>.  Then the message is printed and the program
ends.  If I use printf(), the problem goes away.  The Lattice tech
support man says this is not a bug, but is a problem with the C
language.  I then tried this program under BSD 4.3, on a uVAX, Ultrix
5.5 on a uVAX, and BSD 4.2 on a Sun 3/160.  It worked properly on all
three.  So, can anyone explain this "bug" to me?
Thanks!
