Just a little advising:

I understand that the file "cd81e.zip" updates my installation since I
already have the CD.

OTOH, I understand a new user has to download "dm81ec.zip" to have a
minimum compiler system.

Now for what purpose is the file "dm81ecom.zip" issued? At first I
thought (and directed a friend to download it) it was suposed to update
an earlier version of the command line only compiler download. However,
it contains a DLL which in the dm81ec.zip does not appear!

TIA

The com version is just for people who want a new compiler. The dll is for
the cd version if you don't feel like downloading the whole update file.
