Dear Delorie,

I installed a DJGPP package on a Win2000 machine and it works wonderfully!

However on an NT machine, it appears to want back slashes('\') versus
forward slashes ('/') for directory names.

When I compile a simple hello world program, the W2000 works great, the NT
says it can't find file c:/djgpp/include/otherincludefile.h.  I do a dir on
c:\djgpp\include\otherincludefile.h and it *is* there.

I suspect it is because of the preferred use of '/' as evidenced in the
djgpp.env file -- which NT doesn't like.  

Is there a switch in NT I can tweak, or command line to add to the djgpp.env
file or my environment variables ( I don't know enough of the script
language to do it myself if it is possible) which would enable me to get up
and running?

Any help appreciated,

Jeff Klopotic
