Heres how I do it. I keep djgpp in a directory called c:\djgpp.
Now, when I see some interesting binary, I download it to a temporary
directory called v:\djgppt (t, for temporary). Now, I have in my
djgpp directory the unzip32 executable. What I do is this, I have
an icon which starts a dos window and sets up djgpp. I double click
on my cure little "RunDJ" icon, and I cd over to my
c:\djgpp directory, and do the following at the command line
unzip32 c:\djgppt\*.zip
When its through unzipping the binaries, I empty my djgppt directory.
Now this seems to work for me. I am sure that the gentle people
here will correct anything I said which was sub-moronically stupid.
By the way, I do this on 98,2000 and XP Pro, If you want a dos
(command) window, just go to Start:Run and enter command. I think
you can aslso do soemthing similar by entering cmd.
