For the installation just go througth the steps in the file readme.1st ,i
think you get that apart from the rest off the files at the ftp site.
Now if you've done all that correctly according to the instructions DJGPP
should work!

Now DJGPP's compiler (GCC.EXE) is a command line compiler so I recommend you
use RHIDE,DFE or some other Ide.

Since you say you're new to programming it could be a good idee to leave
RSXNTDJ for later, rather get Allergo!

Now don't worry because you don't know annyting about programming!
I've learnt C from the Internet!
I' promise you there is thousand's off tutoriuls out there!
