How do you feel about "use whichever of these compilers you feel
comfortable with, here are the manuals, don't bother reading them, just
refer to them when you get stuck, here are some scripts for compiling with
a selection of compilers, they work like so, easy huh?, and just bear in
mind that I'll be testing your code on several different compilers, so
don't get unwarrantedly chummy with your library of choice"?
