Re: Borland C++ 4.5

[Andrew Neil Ramage]

This was a BC++ 4.5 CD I bought years ago.  The system I use is SusE 9.2 
Desktop (hoping to upgrade to Pro soon) and the latest wine cvs.  There 
was no debugging information available as the system hung, so I could 
not access the shell window I started the install from.
