Dear Neil,

I've read that page over several times, and there was some info about 
compiling ELKS itself. However, if it does say what to use to compile 
software to run on ELKS, I couldn't find it. Would you be so kind as to 
humor a newbie to C and ELKS and copy and paste in the paragraph or two 
that has it, and I'll forward it to my local LUG friends to explain it 
for me if I can't understand it?

Thanks for your help.

Yours in peace,

Jerry
