If you thought I was complaining about C++, it just isn't
so; Lawson and I were conversing on a thread about why my 
C++ compiler was broken. I think I figured it out. 

It seems that the binutils package (read rpm) that I chose
was the WRONG ONE. You can check the archives if you're interested

But I would be interested in any info. you have about how to 
use Slackware. For I'm now beginning to lose faith in RedHat, and
I'm interested in running Slackware--I've re-installed it today.

For example, I didn't have a clue where the proper place was
to PUT the tarball before cd-ing to it and running 
tar -xzvf blah.tar.gz

So it's comforting to know that there's a fearless group
of gurus out there, willing to help me on my quest!

Thanks for EVERYTHING!!
