Hi,
	the gpp portion stand for the gnu port of the c++ compiler.  The dj is
the initials of dj Delorie who ported this stuff from gnu unix to the
dos windows world.  In fact what is here is a lot of gnu unix tools
ported to run on a pc.  Just move over ??????b.zip (binary)and you have
it ready to run on your pc without too much effort.

		Regards Ian.
