Hi,
	goto where you got it and get infoxxxb.zip.  pkunzip -d infoxxxb then
take the info lesson.  Info is a drag but you can read most of the stuff
in gnu with it.

	one other point for after, in djgpp/info there are a lot of *.inf
files.  There is also a file called dir. Edit dir and add any *.inf
files it's easy to figure out how.  Once that is done you will be up to
speed on all this stuff.

		Regards Ian.
PS if you are really stuck you can read faq.inf with edit but that's
even worse.  Oh yes you should have got all *b.zip files not *s.zip. 
The latter is if you need to fix the sources and that's for an expert.
