Dear Persons,

In reference to

Windows/NT/95/98 with VC++ 6.0, version 3.02/07 (good old tar file) 
**WIN32GDK** (10.6 MB).  
This version is compiled and linked with the GDK driver implemented by 
Bertrand Bellenot. This is still an experimental version: 
Advantages: Same GUI and look&feel as on Unix 
Disadvantages: cannot use MSDOS shell: slower 
We expect to introduce this version as the default option in the next 
release. 

I apologize, I am a novice at Programming. I have looked around for a couple 
of days and cannot figure it out. What is GDK? Does Root run in it? Do you 
have to buy GDK? I only want to run the compiled binary...I only want a Root 
prompt. The older version runs well under DOS, but the GUI is somewhat 
primitive. This version will not run under DOS. How do you run it? Thank you 
in advance for your time and consideration.

Dennis Smoot
