Oh. Well, I'm not a C programmer and have never really had the need
or desire to learn all the intricacies of GCC. I just approached it
from the admittedly simplistic point of view that "optimization is 
good, therefore more optimization must be better." Thanks for enlightening
me.

I am a longtime Solaris user looking to bring some *nix knowledge home to my
MS-ME box.

1.  My first eyes-on look at Linux was a colleague who was running RedHat
7.x on his laptop.  He opened a terminal window and entered "lintowin" or
"lin2win" (don't remember which).  A large window appeared and inside it was
a Win95 desktop, running natively (or so it appeared), allowing him to bring
up MS Office docs.  The window closed when he picked "Start -> Log Off".
Does anyone know this command and its pedigree?  (Or is it more likely to
have been an alias to WINE or VMWare)?

2.  I have been unable to find any evidence that there is a Linux version of
the Desktop Korn Shell (dtksh).  Is there one?

Please include me in your reply, as I am not (yet) on the mailing list.

Thank you --
Gregg Dameron

If you're using vim, you can also use the Visual Mode to make mass 
case changes:

v, V, ctrl-v to enter the visual mode and highlight specified text.

Then U to change all selected text to uppercase.

This is kind of an odd way to do things, but it's really handy if you need 
to affect changes on a collumn of words in the middle of other text such 
as variables in a case statement.
