In gpp281b.zip: - cxxfilt.exe (1998.06.06 15:05, size - 65024) - gxx.exe (1998.10.22 16:31, size - 132096) In djdev202.zip - gxx.exe (1998.12.13 13:17, size - 70144) In bnu281b.zip - cxxfilt.exe (1997.12.31 14:33, size - 55808) These files are not identical, so if someone wants to use C++, he may be confused. Especially LBInstDJ. Laurynas Biveinis
