Hello,
I downloaded the GNU GCC compiler, and when it was unzipped I got a CRC
error. I already tried to fix it with pkzipfix, and that failed to fix the
problem.  

Even though I could not fix the CRC, I still tried to compile the sample1.c
program.  OS/2 gave me the following error:

SYS0193: *** cannot be run in a OS/2 session.

EXPLANATION: The specified file or program is either a DOS
application program or not compatible with OS/2.
ACTION: If the specified application is a DOS program,
switch to a DOS session and retry the command.
Otherwise reinstall the application and retry the command.
If the error occurs again, contact the supplier of the
application program.


To reproduce the problem I just execute as.exe.  I tried running it in a dos
session, and that did not work. 

I am not sure if the bug is in as.exe or in the site I downloaded it from.

Regards,

Charles
