What is C9X?
C9X is the name for an effort undertaken in the late 90's
to produce a new improved standard for the programming language
C. An ISO committee has been working to define this new
improved language. In december 1997, they released their
first public draft version of the new standard for public
review. Later, they also released the C9X FCD (final committee
draft).
What is new in C9X?
Many changes have been made to the C89 standard.
These include 5 new keywords (not all of which are lowercase!),
new header files, some older header files modified, some
clarifications to the syntax, etc.

Note, the standard is actually quiet different from the
draft but the two are very near in content hence both should
be considered genuine and reliable.
