     How much public information is there about the "p-code" used in early versions of Microsoft application software, including MultiPlan, Word, Excel, and probably others? They originally had a proprietary C compiler named "CS" that produced the p-code. There are claims that p-code support was added to the Microsoft C Compiler, but I haven't found any actual documentation of that.
