Where to get information on C PROGRAMMING
Unfortunately, OLC does not have the capability to help with detailed questions
about programming. In general, problems of this nature require amounts
of time and attention that consultants are not capable of providing, except
in rare circumstances.
PLEASE BE AWARE that if an attempt is made to help with your problem, there
are no guarantees that we will have the resources to completely solve it.
Priority must be given to questions that fall into the domains which we
support; therefore, it may be necessary to resolve your question if we
cannot provide any additional assistance without considerable effort.
Here are some other resources you can consult should we be unable to help
completely. The on-line help browser might also prove helpful, and can be
started up by typing "help" at your athena% prompt. To see consultants'
stock answers on your topic also, select "Athena Consultant's Answers
to Common Questions" under the section "Other Athena Information
Sources" near the bottom of the page that pops up.
