Thank you. I am so ignorant of the Unix/Linux world that I didn't
realize that these were source packages.

Thank you, I'll need it. This should certainly keep me busy for a
couple of weeks. I'll get back to you once I've managed to get the C
compiler working and have figured out how to use it to get AfterStep on this
system. If I manage to do this, I will want to configure AfterStep as well.
Thanks for now.
Ian
