`as' is the assembler.  Look in your c:\djgpp\bin subdirectory and see if
there's as.exe there.  If not, that's your problem.  as.exe comes with the
bnuNNNb.zip package (where NNN is the version number).

No.

DOS and Windows support both forward- and backslashes alike.  Since many
DJGPP packages are ports of Unix utilities, it is better to use forward
slashes.

In any case, this is not your problem.  Thousands of DJGPP users use
djgpp.env which you have on your machine, with no problems at all.
