Maybe I will write the Getting Started thing.  (That's NOT a 
promise--yet.)  Will a kind of tutorial with a lot of pointers to other 
docs be OK?

"How to learn C with DJGPP" is a non-issue, IMHO.  Once the initial 
getting started is mastered, newbies should get any C tutorial (I 
recommend K&R, 2nd edition) and get themselves wet with it.
