OK.... Here then is my ConceptGCC installation for dummies guide: You need to have Cygwin installed: http://www.cygwin.com/ Hurdle 1. Many Windows users are used to zip not bz2 files, so what do I do with them? Answer: Cygwin comes with bunzip2.exe or in case of an archive you can directly 'tar -xvjf <file>' Move the resulting 'opt' directory to your Cygwin installation. In my case C:/Cygwin so in my case the result is C:/Cygwin/opt Head for Start>Control Panel. Head for System>Advanced>Environment Variables. Find 'Path' environment variable Add The ConceptGcc bin directory e.g PREVIOUS_Stuff;C:/Cygwin/opt/conceptgcc-VERSION/bin Now check it works. Open a command prompt. (If you have Cygwin correctly installed you shouldnt need to be in Cygwin shell) type conceptg++. If all is working ok you should get: C:\my_current_dir>conceptg++ conceptg++: no input files C:\my_current_dir Next.. Head for the tutorial: http://www.generic-programming.org/languages/conceptcpp/tutorial/ ....And it even works with my Stuff! :-) regards Andy little
