Yes true, but once in a while I flush all of my tools and reinstall [make
sure nothing creeps in].  A 100mb package would be a pain [actually all the
djgpp bins I could find are 58mb, docs are another 10 to 20 mb] but much
better than, download fil300b.zip, then txti31b.zip, then ...

His zip-picker comes a nice way, but lacks "developer" tools and there is no
gcc3-0 yet... which strikes me as odd since it was so simple to build in
redhat
