Subject:	FAQ

The FAQ itself comes with the distribution.  You can get this from
omnigate.clarkson.edu (128.153.4.2) in /pub/msdos/djgpp/faq.  But it's
only 7500 bytes or so---complaints about it are historically rampant.
I think it's also in the file DJDOC.ZIP, which also includes man pages
and TeX versions of the FSF documentation for GCC.  People seem to
think this is opaque, although it's pretty voluminous.  If you're not
TeX able, there are PostScript versions around somewhere, but I
couldn't find them on omnigate.  Maybe at ftp.math.niu.edu
(dunno.the.IP.sorry).
    A better strategy (if you can afford the bandwidth, it's about
8MB) is to get the mailing list archives from sun.soe.clarkson.edu
(128.153.12.3), in /pub/msdos/djgpp/djgpp-old.  (They used to keep
them in partitioned form by versions at ftp.math.niu.edu, but they
stopped updating at about v. 1.08, so that's pretty dated now.
Although I haven't checked it recently.)
    I keep promising myself (and the world) that I'll try to do
something to combine the archives with the FAQ, but at the moment I
got no time.
