Thanks for helping- I think you're right to say I could get the code to
work without ostream. (There's more mentions of ostrean than just rhe
call to the header, so I'll have to do more than delete "#include
<ostream>". Still what I would really like to know is; is ostream is
supposed to be in djgpp, or did I just lose it ?  
You seem to be saying it may not come with djgpp, but I find this hard
to believe, and I'd like to know for sure. My understanding is that
dgjpp should contain it, but since I'm new to this, I could definitely
be wrong. 

Can anyone find ostream in their copy of djgpp ? 
Can anyone not find it ? 

Am I asking too much or something ? It seems like such a simple
question.
