Well, for a simple example, the ZIP PICKER told me to download about 5
files, none of which was DJDEV*.ZIP, so it is altogether possible that he
doesn't have gcc installed...

Still, then I guess he'd have reported that using it from the command line
resulted in a 'bad command or filename' error.  ;)
