Go to
	http://webstore.ansi.org/ansidocstore/product.asp?sku=ANSI%2FISO%2FIEC+9899%2D1999
and buy a PDF of the 1999 revised ANSI C standard, ANSI/ISO/IEC
9899:1999 ("C99") for $18.  Note that C99 is not yet implemented
by any known compiler.  Unfortunately, the 1989 standard is no
longer available from ANSI.  (If you really need to know
something about it, ask comp.lang.c or contact me directly since
I have copies of both C89 and C99.)
