Ok, this is a learning curve for me, only been playing with OpenSolaris for 
around a week and I am impressed. But there is much learning to be done. In any 
flavour of *nix I have never done any compiling, all my programming has been in 
the world of windows and visual tools. 

I want to learn my around unix and compiling apps as required and have chosen 
to start with MD5Deep. I know OpenSolaris has MD5Sum, but I like the extra 
features of the "deep" application and would like to use it to cut my teeth on.

First off, I am guessing that gcc is somewhat installed but can't seem to 
locate it anywhere. [b]find / -name gcc[/b] finds nothing to do with gcc, but 
if I try and install the gcc package I get an error stating it is in fact 
installed in the global environment. This is all dutch to me (and I'm 
australian <G>). So I will lay out some initial questions:

1) If gcc is installed, where is it and what should I be putting in my path to 
be able to use it? (Is it actually installed in indiana or not?)
2) If not, what package do I need to install to get it, is it 
[b]libgcc-3.4.6-sol10-x86-local[/b]?

Let's start with just those two for now. Regards
