Yeah, he and I traded emails briefly 7 or 8 years ago, I think, but didn't really have that much to talk about.
But we go way back -- we were in the same class and same dorm at MIT (before he dropped out and wrote BDS C), and were housemates for about a year c. 1981-82.
Ever hear of MINCE? It was a micro-Emacs that first ran on CP/M, later MS-DOS. The first version was developed using BDS C.
Ah. Well, I was one of the founders of Mark of the Unicorn, and helped write MINCE (though most of the credit belongs to my colleagues Jason Linhart and Craig Finseth).
I guess this guy never heard of Leor Zolman and the BD Software C Compiler [0] :-)
I got a lot of use out of that compiler back in the day, but I can tell you, Leor had no idea what he was doing when he started.
