Examples of Prop-SX code using C

Hi All -

Anyone doing Prop-SX programming using the C language?  Are there any examples of C code for the prop-sx around?  (Looked in the library but didn't see any.)  Any thoughts of using C vs. sx/b for the prop-sx?

Thanks in advance.

The trouble is finding a C compiler -- at the same price as SX/B.  There is a possible solution, though it doesn't integrate into the SX-Key IDE cleanly; still it's a solution that I know a couple people are using with the SX chip.

I've only "played" a bit with this, but after the holidays and when I have some breathing room I, too, will but a bit more effort into it.  It's likely I'll setup an external editor like EditPlus or Programmer's Notepad to handle the editing and compiling then calling the SX-Key IDE with the compiled (.SRC) file. 

If you come up with something sooner, please share!
