Well, I've not ever had to install it myself--it has always been standard with the Irix and linux distributions I've used for years (Redhat, then Fedora). Get the package I pointed you to and read the instructions. It will tell you if there are any unusual requirements, but it is probably ported to your existing system with its base C compiler. And by the way, exactly what system/OS are you using that you are having so much trouble with? If it's not Linux, Free BSD, Solaris, or some other *nix, find the nearest one to you and save yourself a lot of trouble. -Tom
