> Hmmm, how about an offline ZIP-Picker under Dos ???

This has come up before, but the problem is that the online zip picker
relies on being able to scan the existing djgpp ftp site and have a
list of currently known good mirrors.  I would have to rebuild the
"zippicker.exe" file *every day* to keep it up to date.

Plus, for most people, once you figure out how to get the
zippicker.exe downloaded and running, you probably don't need it any
more ;-)

And there is an install.exe on the ftp site, and a readme.1st.
