I worked using the High C compiler in my first post-university job back in '88-'89, working for PacTel Teletrac, an early street mapping and vehicle tracking division of PacTel. I was formerly one of the beta developers for the Mac, and my job was creating the GUI subsystem for the Teletrac application.
The High C Compiler was fast, I remember that, as I was used to getting a cup of coffee when compiling anything decent sized back in the late 80's, and High C compiled too fast for a cup. Of the non-standard C features available in the High C Compiler: we were not allowed to use any of them, they were seen as proprietary locks that would render our application unable to change compilers if needed.
Anyone remember Ted Gruber's FastGraph?
