A comment on Show HN: My Turbo Pascal compiler in JavaScript. Parent comment
I only moved into C land (actually C++), when I started developing to UNIX was well.
I still remember when after my first Xenix session, I asked my teacher about using Turbo Pascal and being disappointed for it not being available.
> C, while it still lacked a standard, had everything you needed out of the box, and the direction for a standard was clear.
Except modules, namespaces and being unsafe by default.
