StormC version 3 was basically MaxonC++ updated a bit. StormC version 4 was
a complete rewrite from gcc's source code so it is far better. Raymond
Zarling the author of stlport for StormC 4 said that "StormC 3 is nothing
but
a toybox compiler"... Eg not very good ;). So hopefully StormC for DE
should have a nice gui with the power of gcc behind it :-).

Regards,

Martin :-)
