Hey Kelli!

ROFLMAO

look here...

I do love the rest of your email. It brought tears to my eyes. Honestly!

Go get 'im Tiger:)

The entire portion of the manual describing the tools including the linker 
and compiler was provided in pdf format.

AG's own documentation might be smaller:

http://www.mathematik.uni-ulm.de/users/ag/yaze-ag/yaze-ag_doc.html

A hello world program was provided with the myz80 disk image for Z-System. 
To build it:

CC HELLO.C
LINKER HELLO.MIX

To run it:

HELLO

Let me say that again... "HELLO???"

Like I said to AG I wonder what he is up-to... I do get the feeling that he 
is challenging my legitimacy somewhat in providing C Compilers for download 
for CP/M since I have put-up quite a number now, not just this one, and I am 
not an authority. Maybe what he is saying is that from a okey-dokey 
scientific or historical perspective none if this is notable, citable, 
referenceable, etc. and has no place in this newsgroup.

It's probably time I took a look at Yaze-AG too... no sleight intended to 
AG.

But I was having too much fun playing with my Apple (oops! that didn't 
come-out right:)

And one needs to question the motivation of someone who is just having fun, 
right?
