I have been running DJGPP successfully through RHIDE in a 16 bit WINDOWS =
95 environment for 2 years. The program is running on a Pentium 100 =
machine with a 1GIG hard drive partitioned into C and D drives. Windows =
is installed on C, DJGPP and RHIDE are installed on D.

Having run into severe space problems on C I recently re-formatted the =
hard drive (after first doing a back-up using the zip-drive) and =
re-loaded all the software. After restoring DJGPP and RHIDE from the zip =
drive I attempted to enter the path statements into autoexe.bat which at =
this point contained no other statements.
I entered ;  PATH=3DD:\DJGPP\BIN;%PATH%
                DJGPP=3DD:/DJGPP/DJGPP.ENV
and Windows responded with;
                =
C:\WINDOWS\Desktop>PATH=3DD:\DJGPP\BIN;D:\DJGPP\BIN;C:\WINDOWS;C:\WINDOWS=
\COMMAND

C:\WINDOWS\Desktop>DJGPP=3DD:/DJGPP/DJGPP.ENV
Bad command or file name

Consequently, when I try to use DJGPP it complains that "the enviroment =
variable DJGPP is not defined".
I have tried using back slashes in the environment statement but to no =
avail, what is the problem?
