(...details, details... always my undoing...)  ah, sorry but actually I can't
be more specific right now :-(

We have a client currently using SunOS systems, interested in moving to PC's
running TL3.0.  As described to me after the fact,  besides his hesitation
regarding using gcc, he was looking for something that could handle multiple
source files at the same time with a single 'make' command.

Forgive my ignorance  - I'm not a programer, just getting familiar with the
innards of Linux, and oblivious to the workings of SunOS;  from my understand
though it appears he's looking for something to match a functionality he
currently enjoys under SunOS...

Sorry - just my understanding of what he was looking for....

TIA for any enlightenment you can lend.
