The best way to do this would be to put together a reference book for the collection, and provide a CD with all the software plus compiler, for the PC. (You could probably include other versions on the CD as well, but just having the non-Windows versions available for download is probably okay.)

Eachus "The terrorist enemy holds no territory, defends no population, is unconstrained by rules of warfare, and respects no law of morality. Such an enemy cannot be deterred, contained, appeased or negotiated with. It can only be destroyed--and that, ladies and gentlemen, is the business at hand." -- Dick Cheney
