> is Ansi-C the right year compiler and language?
"Ansi-C"? ANSI is the American National Standards Institute. "ANSI C"
refers to the standard version of the C programming language ratified by
ANSI for use in the United States of America. In colloquial usage, "ANSI C"
refers to the 1989 version of the ANSI C standard, ANSI X3.159-1989, which
is also referred to colloquially as "C89" or "C90" (as ISO adopted the same
standard as ISO 9899 in 1990.)
The OpenWatcom C compiler is mostly compliant* with C99. It generally
supports C89 ("ANSI C").
*I am not sure of the extent of the incompatibility, but I have not
encountered issues with versions 1.9 or the 2.0 fork. It may fully
implement C99 at this point.
