I don't see the compiler. The first Etch install I did (back when it was testing), it dragged in the compiler and would have taken me something like 24 hrs to download, which was when I discovered that a minimal install was faster. I only use the compiler when I'm ready to write something in Ada. Doug. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
