Hello!

I did not know where to send this. There were so many authors. Maybe you can forward this to the right person(s), unless you are the right one.

I am a quite experienced computer programmer, used to both unix and msdos/windos.

Still I found the installation documentation very troblesome to read, and not to say perform. (I am talking about the MS-DOS/Windows version.

I will manage it, but it will take a lot of unneccesary time, if everyone have to find out themselfs.

Why cant there be an automated installation program for the basic functionality in GNU pascal. A one command, and all is installed and ready to run way.

That would be the best, but second best, a step by step description, for what to do, if you have to install all from scratch, like this:

1: Download theese files: <insert the needed files here>

2: Expand the files to theese directorys.

3: Start the compiler by: make ...

4: Finished.
