Subject: Re: Re: Have pity on a neophyte

	Thanks everyone for your replies.  They were very helpful.  I got 
the "supplementary" binaries and suddenly everything started working.  The 
"compress.c" compiled & linked in no time flat, as did the "sort.cc" 
program.  Some people replied the 1.10 is basically a "beta" release, that 
it has some bugs, etc.  Is there a list somewhere of what the known bugs 
are?  Has a "schedule" (informal or formal) been set for the next future 
release?
	As far as the documentation goes, I'll post messages when I have 
had more experience with the compiler.  From what I've heard, it soumds 
like a hypertext system is needed for this compiler.  This is not 
technically difficult, it is just time consuming. (It's much easier if the 
ascii flat files are already very organized.)
	I had another question that I meant to ask in my last posting.  I 
know that there is a "class library" for g++ that has a lot of container 
classes and other "generic" C++ classes that would save me a lot of time 
(being a C++ programmer).  Has this been ported to djgpp?  If not why not?  
I could probably volunteer for this task.
	Once again, thanks everyone for your help, and I'll be looking 
forward to a time when GRX works with version 1.10.
