I just got and installed RSXNTDJ and I am ecstatic about using it.
I've programmed the X Windows environment in C but was under the
impression that C++ was the only way to write Win95 apps from
everything I've seen.  Anyhow, I got it, meticulously followed the
installation directions... and I can't get the test.c file to compile.
I created a file called test.c and out in it the following:

int WINAPI WinMain(HINSTANCE hInstance, HINSTANCE hPrevInstance,

LPSTR lpCmdLine, int nCmdShow)

{
	MessageBox (NULL, "Hello Win32", "First App", MB_OK);

return 0;

}


When I go to compile with "gcc -Zwin32 test.c -o test.exe" I get the
following output from gcc:

test.c:1: parse error before `WinMain'
test.c:1: parse error before `hInstance'
test.c: In function `WinMain':
test.c:6: `NULL' undeclared (first use this function)
test.c:6: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once
test.c:6: for each function it appears in.)
test.c:6: `MB_OK' undeclared (first use this function)


Did I miss something in the install?  Can anyone give me a clue as to
why I am getting these errors and maybe give me clues as to how to fix
them?  Thanks in advance.
