I have a question and a request concerning the g++ port to 386/486.

1.   Can somebody please e-mail me parts 1-4 ?  I guess I started
     downloading them too late.  They are no longer available from
     my site.

2.   My question is concerning how much memory g++ allows programs
     to use.  In other words, can I write a program that uses 2
     megabytes of data memory if I have enough RAM installed?
     What is the major difference between g++ and a 16-bit compiler
     such as TC++? (Other than that the latter is commercial.)

I'd appreciate responses through e-mail or posts to the newsgroup.
