I have linux and Win NT, but my linux machine is not always available, so I
would like to be able to build legOS on my NT machine.

Dave Madden once told me that he was working on some scripts and docs to
show how to install egcs and legOs, he might be a good reference for this

You can get Adobe Acrobat for Linux (I'm not sure how much it costs) from
www.adobe.com, or if you are more of a programmer, you can get the free C
library for creating PDF files from fastIO systems (see
http://www.pdfzone.com/products/software/tool_ClibPDF.html).
