Chapters 12-14 of the "C for Yourself" text is almost identical to
Chapters 2-4 of the Version 2.00 "Microsoft QuickC Graphics Library
Reference", but there is some conflicting information. In general, if
there is a conflict of information, the graphics library reference is
correct.

On Page 265 of the "C for yourself" text and on Page 87 of the
graphics library reference, the information on QuickC (QC) .FON font
file compatibility is incorrect.

QuickC's .FON files are identical to Windows .FON files, not .FNT
files.

This error in "C for yourself" is documented in the QuickC Version
2.00 README.DOC file, Part 2, "Notes on 'C for Yourself.'"
