Hello!
When I first downloaded mingw, I was under the impression it was called
     mingw_date_version#.zip|exe,
or something logical like that....

When I goto sourceforge to download the latest
complete package, as a whole, I find apparently
there is no such package now?
That when unzipped or executed installs the complete
mingw directory tree, with all necessary items
all nicely provided and put where they belong.

Is this form of mingw still available or what
now?  Did I miss something somewhere?

the gcc in the mingw I have reports:
g:\mingw>gcc --version
GCC.EXE (GCC) 3.4.2 (mingw-special)
Copyright (C) 2004 Free Software Foundation, Inc.

The dates in most of the things in \bin\ is
1-20-05, and the libs are dated 1-20-05,
and I installed it 05-04-05 judging from the date
of the mingw directory itself.

I was trying to determine if a single mingw-installer could be downloaded to
conveniently upgrade me to the latest version.
I understand that various components can be updated seperately; but I like having
on hand the
very latest complete installer if still available.

Thanks for any comments!

Rad...@ya...
