Hi Sean,
Sorry I don't have a copy of Metrowerks(CodeWarrior?). I kinda got
tired of the the borrowing thing myself which is why I went to Debian
GNU/linux. I try to adhere to the FSF concept. I can't say I'm perfect
in that regard cause I use a "hostage"(non-free) program myself, JDE. I
was looking at the Metrowerks website and from what I saw Metrowerks
packages with SUSE I'm pretty sure. Those would probably be the folks
to ask.
