    A question about this compiler...

    I just want to ask you guys if you've used or are familiar with the Lcc-win32 C compiler by Chris Fraser, Dave Hanson, Jacob Navia. And what comments can you give about it? or is there a "better" compiler out there? thanks!!!

    you guys can download it at:

    The license says

    This software is not freeware, it is copyrighted by Jacob Navia. It's free for non-commercial use, if you use it professionally you have to have to buy a licence.
    If you prefer compilers with less restrictions, check out Dev-C++, Code::Blocks or Pelles C.

    well, i only use it for non-commercial purposes. what im asking is the compiler as a whole. i does have tons of header (*.h) files in it's library and i dont recognize about 95% of them LOL
    It is not who I am inside but what I do that defines me.

    it's a nice compiler, I made somewhat bigger projects in it too. They try to be a complete free windows compiler which is of course hard to do with visualstudio out there too but they do pretty well for something thats free.
    Plus it uses more and more C99
