 Yes,  it's no April Fool joke.   The PD C compiler exists and I've used
it.  Someone mentioned that he has the lastest version, and has (by now)
posted it to James Turner.

 Last night, I finally logged onto the Atari BBS, and downloaded a
public domain shell (called ash). If people are interested, I'll send it
to Turner.

 I've been using PCOMMAND for a while now, but I just switched to the new
shell. Its commands are very similar to Csh, eg  ls , rm , mv, mkdir, etc.
It also support a history mechanism, and previous command(s) line editing,
which is something NOT supported by PCOMMAND.   Ash also has df, cat, grep.
It takes up about 70-80 K of memory.

 Now the bad part.  The cp command is very slow.   Doing a rm *.* always
generate an error message saying "Can't remove .", and it quits.  No
option for wide directory listing.

 Actually, these flaws are very annoying that I'm considering getting
Beckermeyer's Cshell.   Can someone tell me how much memory the
Beckermeyer Csh takes up?   How good is it previous command line editing
facilities?
