It is included in recent libg++ distributions, in the ./etc directory. If you do not have libg++ or (heaven forbid) you don't have GNU g++ 1.35 you can obtain these via anonymous ftp from either prep.ai.mit.edu or yahi.stanford.edu // Internet number 36.83.0.92 The distribution on yahi (called g++.xtar.Z) is generally more recent than the one on prep. GNU g++ 1.35 contains most documented cfront 2.0 features (multiple inheritance, class specific new and delete operators, etc.) as well as other useful addition such as static class member functions. Anyone interested in getting a head start on using cfront 2.0 features is strong encouraged to get a copy of GNU g++ and libg++ NOW!
