My understanding from being at the ACE show (and talking to Gribnif) was
that due to some contract or something with Borland, an English version
of the manual is not allowed.  I got no impression from discussion with
people at gribnif that an english version was anywhere near.  Too Bad.

I'd love to have Pure C, but can't justify paying ~$300 for it with no
manuals...
