Hi

I'm one of the much discussed "Newbies" on this mailing list, so please 
be patient with me.

For one I've got to say that I agree it was difficult figuring out what 
to get quickly, and if I was paying for my Internet connection I'd say 
I'd be pretty annoyed, but if you read through the online FAQ and 
readme.1st, you get there eventually and there is a link to Brennan 
Underwood's page which goes through the installation process very simply.

My main question is in regard to installing and uninstalling components 
of DJGPP. I've noticed that most components log their contents to the 
manifest folder. I was wondering if there is a program that will 
uninstall a selected component? IF there isn't, I was intending to write 
one to get used to the new environment of DJGPP (I come from a 
Borland background). I think this would be a handy feature.

BTW, I can't use the newsgroup, and I would just like to check: if I want 
to reply to a message on this group, I reply to the original sender and 
send a copy (Cc) to djgpp AT delorie DOT com, right?

Thanks in advance

Brett Porter.
