Re: [Dev-C++] Turbo C++ - what is it?

[Benjamin W. <ben...@ho...>]

Turbo C++ is a product of Borland (or rather was a product).

Before Borland went into the RAD (Rapid Application Development) business 
with C++ Builder, their main C++ environment was Turbo C++.

Turbo C++ ran in DOS and had a DOS IDE (very similar if not identical to 
that of the Borland Turbo Debugger IDE, as they are from the same era).

In a nutshell, it was Borland's C++ environment which included IDE, 
integrated debugger, etc. for the DOS world.  We used it alot in 
college...that and the Borland Turbo Pascal environment which is the same 
thing, just for the Pascal language.  It was a great product and I still 
have a copy of it...but never use it anymore.  After all, we are in a 
Windows world now...and bigger and better environments have come out.

Anyway, I hope that gives you some insight on what it is/was.
