[mpich-discuss] mpic++/mpicxx?

[Geoff Hilton]

Hi Jayesh and thanks for your response, do you have a working copy of 
said batch file and a list of changes that you made to the installer 
(installed files?) and jam files that I could use? I'd really appreciate 
any help I could get so that I can get up, running and back to coding asap.

Unrelatedly is this list available via gmane? If not, can it be? It'd 
make browsing it infinitely easier.

Thank you!
