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.
=20
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
=20
C:\WINDOWS\Desktop>DJGPP=3DD:/DJGPP/DJGPP.ENV
Bad command or file name
=20
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?
