I have made a provisional web page to provide help and information for
potential users of the GDC compiler at

Please let me have your comments and suggestions for improvement/removal.

Thanks, Steve

Thank you Steve Teale, I have installed gdc on an Ubuntu with no problems at
all, a smoother installation compared to LDC :-)
It's a lot of time I don't use gdc (and I used it on Windows), so I've done
some not-synthetic benchmarks. In all of them LDC produced faster or quite
faster programs :-)

Is stdlib.RAND_MAX correct on both Windows and Linux, gdc, ldc, dmd1 and dmd2?
I have had some troubles caused by it in the last year. I think both Tango and
dmd have fixed it now, but I have not tested it in all situations yet.

Bye,
