Surprisingly, Mark Williams C 2.0 already has a lot of ANSI C in it. But the naughties, they #define __STDC__ but do *not* implement all of ANSI C, so that programs that I have that compile differently depending on the absence or presence of __STDC__ don't work. It would have been better not to have defined __STDC__ until everything was implemented. I don't know about MWC version 3, because it has taken me nearly a year to get it, and it *still* hasn't arrived. Why is the Dutch distribution of MWC so bad? The Dutch distributors that I was using (Compudress) blame Mark Williams, but I've had such bad experiences with them on other matters, that it's difficult to tell whether they're telling the truth.
