I thought that GNU was suppose to be an alternative to UNIX that was being developed to be free. Anyways, I have seen alot of stuff on atari.archive and panarthea that say GNU-this and GNU-that.. What exactly does this mean? Is there a versio of GNU running on the ST? Anyboyd in Net-land using Minix on there ST? I read an article in BYTE mag. about it and it sounds really good. Does the St version do all of the stuff that the IBM version does (for example does the ST version come with a C compiler, etc) ......Yonderboy@cup.portal.com
