 Oh, not at all.  Any good C++ compiler, ie; Watcom, Borland
 Microsoft, will compile C programs as well as C++.  You'll
 need to use a .c extension on your source files and if
 you want to do ANSI C set the syntax checking for it.  You
 have lots of learning to do.  A C/C++ compiler is a really
 neat thing.  It's also complex, so you'll want to read the
 manual as much as you can stand it (can make for some dry
 reading... great if your having trouble going to sleep).
 You need to start receiving the "C Echo".  If the BBS your
 downloading mail from does not have the C echo just tell the
 Sysop to get it.  It's no problem for him and Sysops are
 usually thrilled to have actually message writers around.
