( ) I disagree that you can't go wrong with modern C compilers.  
    I've tried many of the ST compilers and I am yet to find ONE that will 
    compile ANSI standard source code.  I'm learning C in school, and I 
    use a UNIX compiler.  I've tried Mark WIlliams, Lightspeed C, Madmax c 
    (or whatever), and am currently trying to get GNU C and/or Szobon C 
    to work.  If anyone DOES know of an ANSI/UNIX c compiler please let 
    me know what it is.

Pure C (the former Turbo C) does compile ANSI C quite well, as does, of
course, GNU C. GNU C will compile just about everything you throw at it,
as long as it's anywhere near C code and you get your options right.
Trouble is, GNU C takes forever to compile, and it fills up your HD
real fast.
