For those who expressed interest or have,
I've scanned and uploaded my X3J11-88 ANSI-C Draft and Rationale pdfs.
Thank you Kevin. This is greatly appreciated.
Learning why C has the syntax and semantics that it does, and writing
compilers for various subsets of it, were some of the most important
things I did in my undergraduate education. Now our ongoing discussion
about its history adds an extra dimension.
Kind regards,
Andrew

Systems - Programming Language C
Cool!
They are quit lengthy, 2 sided copies.
I suppose I could create copies if you would like.
Or attempt to scan them into individual pdf files.
Is it bound as a book (with a proper book spine) or wirebound, ..., etc?
Would it be easier to take it to a copy shop?? For example, if it's
wirebound or spiralbound it's very easy and cheap for a copy shop to
take it apart, run the whole thing automatically through a scanning
device, and then reattach the original binding.
I would be willing to contribute a little money to help cover cost of
this in return for a scanned copy.
Kind regards,
Andrew
