Did you read the readme.1st? It should be in your DJGPP root dir.. If
not, read it from
http://www.simtel.net/pub/simtelnet/gnu/djgpp/v2/readme.1st  (or any
closer mirror).

Why exactly can't you compile in another directory? If it says "Bad
command or file name" when invoking gcc/gpp, then this simply means you
haven't set the environment variables and the path.. All this is in the
readme.1st, so you should get out of this relatively painlessly.
