  For anyone eagle eyed: Yes, that does say "DirectToSOM Developers Guide" on that book.

  If you want *really* interesting things that people did with their compilers, one of the big ones with #MetaWare #HighC (strictly speaking High C++) was the idea that one could compile C++ classes (with a couple of _Pragmas to annotate things) directly into code that works with IBM's System Object Model, rather than using all of the messy C-style macros.

  @JdeBP @joe mine did not come with that, but it did say some religious stuff in the manual.
