LX 9000 or CNII?

Hi Dan

The unzipping part is simple, just click on the zipped file and the file manager will show you the contents of the zipped archive, highlight and copy those files into a directory(folder) of your choice. Windows will unzip the files an route. Bill will accept your apology anytime you are ready .

Cheers

Paul

Windows 8.1 is such a pain in the ass...

Finishing my prematurely posted comment:

Martin,

If you're a fortunate soul who "gets" Linux, then I'm sure GPLIGC is a
good thing for you. Most people I know just get overwhelmed by all of
the jargon and seek the simplicity of Windows. GPLIGC does have a
Windows version, but at a minimum one needs to load PERL. That's a show
stopper for me...



I've been a Linux user since 1998 and using UNIX and similar systems
since 1984, so I do that stuff without thinking about it. I don't
remember whether I've used Perl under Windows or not.

GPLIGC by and large 'just works', though its interface and command set
aren't exactly intuitive and I'll admit raising a few feature requests
against it, but it will keep me happy for the coming season and its price
is certainly right!
