I have a few questions: (1) Is it true that cc or gcc is _free_ software, available by anonymous ftp from _somewhere_? (2) If the answer to (1) is true, then where can I get the software? How does one go about installing it? (ie- does the anonymous ftp site just offer the source code needing own compilation, or does the site offer executabe/tar-ed versions?) (3) If the answer to (1) is false, then who can I call to buy the software? How much does it cost? Thanks for any help. Chao-Wei Hwang --- Massachusetts General Hospital.
