I appreciate the effort, but could you save us all some effort and note in
your archive listings software which does not compile with the SCO compiler
and requires the gnu compiler?

This would be helpful, but you might be missing a fine point here: The GNU compiler produces smaller, faster code, and is free for the taking. Appar- ently, the archive listing assumes that anyone who can install gcc will do so, and will use it as their default compiler. -Richard

No, the gnu stuff is not free. You just get to pay for it with non-cash
resources..

Your point is quite valid, as is the position of lots of us who don't do
that much C anymore but do want certain utlities like Elm, Fm, etc which DO
compile on the standard compiler. If I had known the archive had the same
version I could have gotten from any of the free mail servers, I wouldn't
have spent the phone bill doing a direct uucp.

All software, by default, is compiled with the GNU compiler. We only use the Devsys compiler when GNU won't work (which, to the best of my knowledge, has been very limited...) MD -- -- Michael P.
