Dennis Ritchie, inventor of the C programming language and Unix co-creator passed away on the 8th of October. C had a huge influence in program language design and is still widely used today. Unix of course is also very influential in OS design, spawning many clones such as Linux, BSD, etc. >From a personal level, C had a big influence on the way I program today. I've written many games, drivers and emulators in C, on at least 5 different platforms. -- Paul [excessive quoting removed by server] _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: ProFox@leafe.com Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/19f4fee1af56334bb1e275e95de0017a726...@euros01.euro.local ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
