PLEASE, somebody shove my face into the potatoes, or tell me where to start. do i just expand all the zip files? or is there some kind of installation? which exe is the compiler? what does all that other stuff do? i can't afford to buy one of those expensive compilers with all the documentation, so i'm going to have to fight through this crap. thanx in advance. ---------------------------------------------------- \anyway, thanx for being such a great listener! / \you're a swell person (despite what they say) and / \it's been real groovy! / \ htiek / \laurin AT cyberhighway DOT net <><>save the net! / \mybeeper#forthosewhocare <><>support your local / \18007963087 <><>internet provider. / \visit me at http://www.cyberhighway.net/~laurin / ----------------------------------------------------
