    It looks like this page has it - The download link worked for me: https://borland-c.software.informer.com/5.5/

    Is there a specific reason you need the Borland 5.5 compiler though? That's a fairly old one. If you're on Windows, Microsoft has a free edition of Visual Studio. Microsoft even makes a Linux version of Visual Studio now.

    Microsoft makes a version of Visual Studio Code for linux, which is just
    an editor. Visual Studio itself is available only on Windows and macOS
    (though the macOS is very new and I think based on mono).

    I'm aware of Visual Studio Code and have used it before. I must have forgot the full Visual Studio wasn't available for Linux. I may have been thinking of Visual Studio for Mac.

    I will use to compile Worldgroup/Major BBS modules, unfortunately the
    source code wont build with newers compilers like gcc, wattcom, etc...


    Thanks!
