Again, just a question of what to download.  :)  You should get the
file 'djtst200.zip' from your local SimTel mirror and install it as well;
it contains a ton of helpful sample files in a subdirectory called 'tests'.
To go along with it, you should also download 'mak373b.zip', which
contains the GNU Make utility.  Once you have installed it, simply
go into one of the test directories that contains an interesting program,
and type 'make <program>.exe'.  (Or just 'make' if you want to compile
all of the samples in a given directory.)  For more details on how to
use make, look in its info docs, and examine the makefiles in the tests
directories.

BTW, when you need to find DJGPP packages, you should look first
in the 'readme.1st' file - it lists all the major parts of the DJGPP
distribution
and what they do.  If you don't see anything interesting there, consult
the FAQ, which describes a large number of user-developed utilities
and packages for DJGPP.  For the most part, if there's anything at all
you need, DJGPP has it.  :)
