To any kind person who may help me,
I downloaded the recommended files for C++ programing and I think I =
did everything correctly but the rhide command does not work. Here are =
the steps that I followed: 1) I created a folder named "DJGPP"; 2) I =
downloaded the files picked by the autopicker for C++ programing; 3) I =
used WinZip to unzip my files and put them into my DJGPP folder; 4) I =
edited my AUTOEXEC.BAT file to enclude the lines "set PATH=3D =
C:\DJGPP\BIN;%PATH%" and "set DJGPP=3DC:\DJGPP\DJGPP.ENV"; 5) I =
rebooted.
OK, so I'm done, right? Wrong. Every time I try to use the rhide =
command in MS-DOS, I get a "Bad Command or File Name" error. If I click =
on the rhide.exe icon it creates an edit screen which I can work in but =
when I try to compile it gives me the same error message. I've triple =
checked the spelling of the lines I added to my AUTOEXEC.BAT file. I've =
even deleted everything and started over at step one.
Same problem when I'm through doing it all over again.
Looking at my AUTOEXEC.BAT file from MS-DOS (as opposed to the edit =
screen), I noticed it has the line "set =
PATH=3DC:\DJGPP\BIN;C:\DJGPP\BIN;C:\WINDOWS;C:\WINDOWS\COMMAND" in place =
of the line "set PATH=3DC:\DJGPP\BIN;%PATH%". So even though I typed =
the line in right, I think it is having problems with it (though this =
may be normal for all I know).
My system is a PII 433 MHz, 64 MB RAM with Windows 98 as the =
operating system. I've done a little bit of programming in Basic and =
FORTRAN, and I would love to learn C++. So if anybody could help me I =
would be very grateful. Thank you.
