Could someone send me the network location and file path name to the
GCC compiler for the Mac? I don't have ftp, but uunet will ftp it for
me if I give them the explicit info.

Thanks.

Also, I missed out on the News that went around awhile ago. If someone
has a useful blurb describing the Mac GCC, could you send it to me?
I'm looking for answers to questions like:

* How much disk/RAM/CPU is needed to even think of using it?

* How much disk/RAM/CPU is needed to avoid losing one's sanity while
  waiting on a compile?

* Is the MPW environment (linker, assembler, etc.) needed to use GCC?

* Is MPW C needed to make/bootstrap GCC or is there a binary in the
  distribution?

* Does Mac GCC provide full or any access to the Mac Toolbox? (I.e.
  can it be used as the sole compiler to make a Mac application?)

Thanks again.
