What was up with the name Zorland C++ ? ( I ended up at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_Mars )

Also, I was a junior at a startup avant-la-lettre in the early 90ies and we used Watcom C/C++ for OS/2 and Windows development. IIRC, because it supported 32-bits. Did the Zortech compiler support this?

There was Zorland C, but when the C++ compiler was ready it was changed to Zortech.

Zortech came with its own 32 bit DOS extender.
