INSTANT-C 5.4 RELEASED WITH ENHANCED DEBUGGER, ONLINE HELP

Rational Systems, Inc. has released version 5.4 of Instant-C, the
integrated C development/debugging environment for DOS, adding more
automatic error detection,  a new "locals" window, and context- sensitive
online help.

Instant-C features a full suite of standard editing and debugging tools,
plus true incremental compilation, automatic recompilation of all code
affected by edits, an interpreter-like immediate mode for prototyping and
testing, and automatic error detection and diagnosis (of both syntax and
runtime errors) well beyond what traditional compilers can do.

Instant-C is designed to complement your existing toolset. It concentrates
on shortening the development cycle, leaving final code creation to your
existing optimizing compiler.

In version 5.4, the new locals window displays values for all variables in
a function whenever code execution is suspended. The locals window also
offers stronger object code support, by  displaying register and stack
values for functions loaded as object code. (Reconstructed assembly source
also appears, in Instant-C's debug window.)

Version 5.4 now detects over 700 distinct syntax and run-time errors, and
also supports larger code, effectively twice as large as that handled by
the previous version.

The new context-sensitive on-line help system provides full descriptions of
all menu commands. Other ease-of-use enhancements include new tool-access
hotkeys and new window controls.

Instant-C 5.4 for DOS is available immediately and is priced at $2,995. A
maintenance plan is available for $450. Rational Systems is located at 220
North Main Street, Natick, MA 01760, 508-653-6006 or 800-666-2585.
