Wow was I surprised... a freeware Win compiler... =) is the GNU license
for it the same as for DJGPP? I read the FAQs and they said all programs
using their library (i.e. all programs you write) need to be distributed
with source code freely available? did I interpret this correctly? is this
different from the DJGPP license (excluding the DJGPP C++ library) ?

one more question... I'll probably be blasted for asking this, but no
mention was made in the faq's for cygnus win32... does it do win 3.1?
(cringe =) oh well I guess it's time to upgrade... and I was so fond of my
486dx4-100, too =)
