Welcome, alpha/beta tester, to the latest GPC development snapshots! Here there are snapshots which are usually distributed in source form only. You can look for binaries in the `binary' directory. Please see the file INSTALL for installation instructions. More information about GPC can be found on our WWW pages: http://www.gnu-pascal.de For help and discussions about GPC, please contact us at the GPC mailing list, . To subscribe to the list, write an email containing "subscribe gpc" in the body to . (The subject will be ignored.) Have fun! Minimal distributions ===================== Besides the source distributions as before, there are now also "minimal" distributions. These are compressed with bzip2 instead of gzip and do not contain any generated files. These files will be generated automatically when building GPC, but you need some additional tools installed: - bash - bzip2 - *GNU* sed - GNU awk - GNU m4 - bison (at least version 2.0) - flex - autoconf (version 2.12) - help2man - texinfo (at least version 4.2). Please do not get the minimal distribution unless you have these tools installed or are prepared to install them.
