This is only the program to install GTS files, I do not have the software to compile GTS and GTZ files.
I do NOT own GTInstall, GTInstall is (C) 1997, G-Tek Technologies ltd.
This page only exists because I couldn't find any info about this program online, and I just wanted to extract the software from a 1998 Packard Bell restore CD. This is most likely not a complete list of usages, but it can do it's main purpose now.
