From perusal of the page, it looks like it might have made Wayne's porting
job a tad bit easier.  I says that cc calls Visual C++, but doesn't
mention Borland C++...  Also, I'm not sure if the entire package would be
needed in order to run a lynx compiled under it or not...  If so, it would
be unreasonable to ask someone to install the package just to get lynx
working... :)  It still looks pretty nifty and may provide some help as
far as helper applications for lynx.
