I would like to install GCC on my Powerbook. I have read all of the information on http://gcc.gnu.org/install/ but I understood almost nothing. I am a Unix novice and only know basic commands for making directories I have never compiled and installed an application from source code. Where can I get explicit instructions for installing GCC?
By far the easiest option is to go to Apple's xcode website at: http://developer.apple.com/Tools/xcode/ , and download xcode, which has a copy of gcc included.
