Thank you very very much for your reply. I would love to try it out. But how big is it? Ten megabytes? Seventy megabytes? Three hundred megabytes? Download speed here is at best ten megabytes per hour, starting at 4AM, but since they cut the cable off Taiwan it has gotten much slower. I want to know so I can free up space on my hard disk. Thanks very much.

I use fgrep a dozen times a day; sometimes diff, touch, strings, head, and tail. So I'd want the command-line toolkit, not the compiler, and maybe other utilities.
