[Coco] The art of programming?

[Alan Jones]

Jim,
Today, in the mail I just received my new "Master C" book and disks in 
the mail. This software  is $44.95 from the Waite Group Press.
I lucked out and found a brand new copy on ebay for $20. This software 
will run in MSDOS. I am getting ready to see if it will run
in a DOS window in XP, but first I have to make up a backup copy to 3 
1/2" disks. They sent me two 5 1/4 inch floppies. This is a really
cool C training tutorial. I started the course years ago, but lost my 
software.
