I would like to ask here why it should take 45 minutes to install a compiler? Why should it take 3000 files or 500 files? I think a distribution package should include: 1. cc.exe 2. library module 3. stdio.h and a few other header files 4. env.bat to set up the environment 5. some doc files and examples 6. GO32 Let the developer's package include source and make capability. I don't care to twiddle with the compiler. -- ============================================== Allen Ashley ashley AT alumni DOT caltech DOT edu =============================================
