(Though I'm not sure how that differs, practically speaking, from accepting commands on stdin and answering them on stdout.) I don't really see GCC itself doing that (at least, the last part). It would require quite a bit of work that might be better left to third-party developers. I hope some of the people on this list will help implement it. I will try to ask GCC developers to develop it too. -- Dr Richard Stallman President, Free Software Foundation 51 Franklin St Boston MA 02110 USA www.fsf.org www.gnu.org Skype: No way!
