clint.txt - Output of clint.c
clint.jpg - The source photograph from which clint.c was generated
convnum.c - An ad hoc demo that turns, say, 1034923 into one million thirty four thousand nine hundred and twenty three
dirparse.c - Traversing a Windows directory tree. Caution: Windows only!
dlldemo.zip - A really simple Windows DLL project
emgen - An error message utility
fgetdata - Routines to read an entire word or line from a text stream
foofun.c - See the comp.lang.c FAQ, Question 1.22
gcg8.c - A code generator generator generator generator generator generator generator generator generator generator!! If your compiler refuses to touch it, try the next one down...
gcg6.c - A code generator generator generator generator generator generator generator generator. If your compiler still doesn't like it, try the next one down...
gcg5.c - A code generator generator generator generator generator generator generator. If your compiler still doesn't like it, try the next one down...
gcg4.c - A code generator generator generator generator generator generator. If your compiler still doesn't like it, try getting a better compiler.
getch.c - A simple demonstration of how to get extended keycodes in an MS-DOS or Windows console application.
hello.c - A very simple demonstration of how to open a file and write some text into it, with proper error handling.
Using C libraries - A discussion of code libraries in C - why to use them, how to make them, and how to use them
msrecurse.c - A quotation from Micros~1's Visual C++ documentation, reproduced here as a classic example of - well, read it for yourself. I have not spoiled your fun by annotating it.
piglatin.c - A rather naive implementation of the Pig Latin language. Use argv for input!
primes.c - A prime number counter. This program uses the Sieve of Eratosthenes to count how many prime numbers there are in the range 1 to 1000000 (one million). It demonstrates one or two handy performance tips - not least how to store the sieve in under 64KB (so that the program will even work in MS-DOS)
proof.c - Another take on FAQ 1.22
rand.c - A simple demonstration of pseudorandom number manipulation.
safesrand.c - Lawrence Kirby's time_seed routine. Usage: srand(time_seed());

strarrdemo.c - Demonstration code for string arrays
ttt.c - A noughts and crosses game - worth a look if you're into permutation processing
Visual C++ console projects - How to create them.
Vigenère - Strictly speaking, not a Vigenère cipher. This program applies a repeated key to a plaintext using XOR.
wbods50.c - An MS-DOS implementation of John Conway's "Game of Life" using no headers, no libraries, no assembly language, no nothing - it's just raw C code.
