Well, you can ftp Turbo C++ version 1.01 from:

<http://community.borland.com/museum>

but the subject is off-topic to comp.lang.c!

As far as I know, no. It is kinda way behind the curve on the C++
standard tho. If you don't need 16 bit support or DOS/DPMI 32 bit
support, you can download 5.5 from their site, which is pretty recent.
If you do need DOS/DPMI for some reason (this being the last version
that supported it) you may also need another package that installs some
glue files. If you need 16 bit support see their museum, you can get
very old compilers but they are pretty far away from the standard in
terms of functionality.

Is this a command line compiler only?

You can get CBX personal edition for free which uses the 5.5 compiler
(or supposedly any other compiler that you want) It doesn't do 16 bit
but some guys at the borland newsgroups are trying to get it to work
with bcc. You should post at their groups newsgroups.borland.com

Thanks for the suggestion.
