Recently the existence of gcc 2.1 was pointed out to me.  May sound foolish
but I've never, seriously, programmed in C/C++ nor had I ever owned such
compiler.
The truth is that I have to learn C/C++ in next few months and I thought
GCC would be a good choice since I don't have to spend $$$ other than printing
the docs.  (Am I right?).
So I like to know what I need to get from hobbes or any other ftp sites to be
able to use gcc with no problem.
Also, any helpful info on porting DOS programs to OS/2 provided that I have
the source code for the DOS version (say Turbo C++ for example) would be
appreciated.
Finally, what's the difference between emx and gcc?  Do I need both?
Does gcc 2.1 come with a make program?  Does it need one? (Dumb question)
Where do I get one? etc..

Thanks in advance.

How long do those Energizers last anyway?
                                          I don't know, I have rechargables.
