BIG "C" compiler comparison thread (Developers)

Aztec, DeSmet, and Lattice were among the first Cs for microcomputers, c.1980s, so resource requirements are low. Aztec and Lattice were available for other platforms than the x86/DOS/PC, making porting from Amiga, Apple, etc. fairly easy (especially applies to Aztec for CP/M, if anybody still uses that OS). DeSmet was popular in its day, many good progs were written in it, but its power users switched to Turbo C when it got good.
