Add #include <conio.h> if you want to use clrscr() and such. Note that it's
not advised to mix conio functions with standard stream I/O.

Please post the exact command line you use to compile, and the messages
generated.
Also: Be sure you have the libgpp* package. You need it for C++. Make sure
your DJGPP variable is set like "SET DJGPP=e:/dj/djgpp.env"; not having this
could cause all your problems. Check that the crt0.o file is present in the
/dj/lib directory. Also post your AUTOEXEC.BAT and CONFIG.SYS files, and
what OS you use, if this doesn't help.
