What about another subdirectory `/easy/' from the same type as `/djgpp/' containing all needed `.zip' files plus the installation program and `README'? Having this, a user only needs to download the contents of *one* directory.
Better still, what about one ZIP file? Put all the relevant .ZIP files inside a single ZIP file, and that is all that the user needs to download.

Hi!
had planned to write something similar for Windows. Then we could create more directories of this type, e.g. `/easy-dos/' and `/easy-w32/', and change the text in `README' accordingly.
Sounds okay to me. I planned to write an install script to be used with my installer (with a free registration given to the GPC team for the purpose of providing and installation routine for GPC distribution). I am still willing to do this - so (Peter and/or Jan-Jaap) if or when you need this, just drop me a note!
