BTW, Unix on DEC hardware was never really popular outside of academia so DEC's machines were primarily programmed in FORTRAN, BASIC or Macro assembler, but there were still several third-party C compilers (for RT11, RSX11, RSTS/E, TOPS and VMS). My shop had spun off of Bell Labs so we had just a few Unix weirdos running things, but the bazillion dollar VAXcluster only ran VMS, so they made us all use Whitesmith's C (which they would incorrectly pronounce with three syllables) which was horrible - so was constantly getting in trouble for continuing to work the evil FORTRAN77 ways 'til one day a Lead (pear-shaped Unix grandmaster smellable from 20 feet away) dropped this on my desk with a thud http://www.bitsavers.org/pdf/dec/vax/lang/c/AA-L370A-TE_Prog... Soon, I was spending my hard earned dollars on Lattice and Aztec C licenses for my own home-brew systems too. I resisted Unix to the very End tho #rofl
