Fish has not been coded with an C99- or GNU-specific -features in mind, so it is hoped that it should be possible to make -fish work with other compilers. Patches are welcome. +Fish is developed using GCC, with the goal of using only C89 language +features. Fish does, however use the *wprintf family of functions, +which are new to the C99 standrard. It is not unlikely that any given +release contains a few GCC:isms, but ICC 9.0.030 has been found to +produce working binaries. GCC 2.95.* won't compile fish, but GCC 3.2.3 +is known to work. Patches to fix any remaining GNU:isms are welcome. Older versions of Doxygen has bugs in the man-page generation which cause the builtin help to render incorrectly. Doxygen 1.2.14 is known
