Not at all. Your slight mistake wasn't my problem. I was just explaining that I
didn't exactly know what the commands were supposed to mean.   Thanks for helping.

Ok that makes sense. Thanks.

As it is above,
C:\djgpp>redir -e error.log -oe unzip32 djdev202
is what I wrote.
 unzip32 and djdev202 are both in  C:\djgpp so I think the answer to your questions
are yes and yes.
