Dear Forum,

Stephan Rosebrock asked:

did anybody compile GAP for linux yet? Where can I get this?

GAP will compile under Linux using GCC which is part of all standard
distributions of Linux. All you need to ftp is the file

ftp://ftp.math.rwth-aachen.de/pub/gap/gap3r4p1.zoo

(which will be replaced by

ftp://ftp.math.rwth-aachen.de/pub/gap/gap3r4p2.zoo

in the near future) and

ftp://ftp.math.rwth-aachen.de/pub/gap/unzoo.c

in case you don't have zoo. The Readme in the first archive contains
information on how to compile GAP on a Unix system, you basically have
to unpacked the archive, cd into the directory "gap3r4p1/src" and type
"make ibm-i386-linux-gcc2".

best wishes
Frank
