Kind of interesting: found an old book on my shelf (1987): "C: A
Reference Manual (Harbison, Steel). Evidently written while ANSI C was
still in "draft proposed" status. Funny quote:

"Although C tutorials abound, there are no detailed descriptions of
the current C language."

Hard to imagine that while reading this 550 page ISO/IEC 9899 Draft. :D

The introduction to the book provides separate compiling examples for
UNIX systems and for DEC VAX-11, running VMS (whatever that is...)
