I'll try and attach it to this email. (remember inexperienced linux

I have picc. That seems to be the underlying compiler for all the HiTech
GUI stuff. which reduces me to picc, because only Windows, and DOS get
the GUI stuff. It's all stripped off, and left bare with the unbuilt
picc source that comes on the HiTech C CDROM.

Yes, and that person is me. It's available on the HT CD.

Good...
Pretty good answer for someone who didn't understand anything...

O.k I think I have successfully attached the HITech stuff forLinux, It
took a while to learn to drive tar.. but it looked like it did something
and the file is big, perhaps to big.
if this doesn't work, I might try removing the acrobat reader files. But
I not to sure on removing things...
see how you go
I posted this on the list WITHOUT attachment.. for good reason.
