Well, I don't have a current user manual. That's rather pointless for a now personal language. I could upload a Windows binary, or that qc.c file, but that would be futile. I don't need to prove to myself that my language exists! And I don't care if you think I've been programming in imaginary languages using imaginary implementations for the last 4 decades. Here however is a summary of these fictional tools: https://github.com/sal55/langs/blob/master/CompilerSuite.md You can see I put some effort into them making look real!
