Replying to my own comment since I was curious - it was certainly Microsoft MASM, and cc was the Microsoft C Compiler as well. [1] So probably Intel syntax.
There was also something called "SCO UNIX" which was apparently more of a straight adaptation of AT&T System V and might have used a pcc compiler and AT&T syntax. It's hard to figure out what happened when because there are a zillion different versions of Xenix/SCO Unix/OpenServer out there.

- pjmlp 4y agoI cannot say much about which Assembler Xenix used, but in 1992 it was clearly still K&R C, the version I had access to was either lacking X installation or pure text based terminals. It was so expensive in Escudos, that for teaching an high school class about UNIX, the teacher would bring a tower (286 or early 386 model) that would be timeshared with the whole class, meaning taking 15 minute slots seating at it, while having prepared the exercises, as much as we could, in Turbo C 2.0 on MS-DOS. It definitly wasn't SCO UNIX though.
