I need help installing gcc 4.0.0 on windows. I have downloaded and succesfully unzipped the tar file. I posted a message on the gcc-help newsgroup and I got a very vague response from someone. I am running windows xp service pack 2, and I wanted to learn to program in my spar time. I was told that the gnu compiler was the best and not only that free. However, I just can't figure out how to install it. Can someone send me step by step instructions on how to install gcc 4.0.0 on windows. It is safe to assume that I know absolutely no UNIX or LINUX commands and don't know how to use them. I don't mean to be a pain but, the more detailed the instructions the better. Thank in advance, Gregory
