I'm not saying this is the best solution...but turbo C++ sounds like the best all purpose compiler you may wish to use. Its Small, runs in dos, supports C++, has a decent debugger, and is easily portable. Other than that, i've not seen very many compilers smaller than gnu, hell, my MSVC compiler takes up 200+ meg (96 megs being 1 help file....figure that out ) If this is what you may want to use...i have the old shareware version of it laying around here somewhere, the restriction of it is that you can't compile a proggy into an .exe that is standalone....but it's great for learning code. +------------------------------------------------------------+ | Ensure that you have read the CircleMUD Mailing List FAQ: | | http://democracy.queensu.ca/~fletcher/Circle/list-faq.html | +------------------------------------------------------------+
