This is super exciting! If I remember correctly, we recommended Micro-C as a great free (gratis) C compiler for DOS. I remember using it for several programs of my own at the time.
It would be great if Dave could have used a more standard open source license (for example, any of the licenses from the Opensource.org list). Using a standard, accepted open source license makes it easy for everyone to understand what the person sharing the code intends. Based on how brief the COPY.TXT file is, the BSD license might have been a better choice and seems to match the intent (as far as I can see at first read). But choosing a license is up to Dave.
