Hi,


I want to use DJGPP and RHIDE on my new winME machine.
The setup given is:

set PATH = C:\DJGPP\BIN\;%PATH%
set DJGPP= C:\DJGPP\DJGPP.ENV

From START on the task bar I choose Run... and type
and enter msconfig resulting in the System Configuration
Utility program. I select Environment tab double click
PATH variable and add C:\DJGPP\BIN\;%PATH% to its value.

But I get this error:

 No environment value substitutions are allowed
 (no more than one %)

I do not get that error on the win95 and win98 machines.

If I leave off  %PATH% programs still compile and run
from RHIDE but I cannot run RHIDE itself unless it is
in the current directory.

RHIDE is in  C:\DJGPP\BIN

Is this due to not being able to add %PATH%

Any ideas how to fix it?
