[Coco] VCC Released To Open Source Project !!!

[Bill Pierce]

Theodore, you may be right. I do know that it compiles with the MS Visual Studio 6 C++ compiler, which I assume would still compile plain C.
I know very little of the MS versions of C.

I did a quick look at the file listing (not the contents of the files) the
extensions make it look like C not C++
