I normally use a batch file to setup DJGPP due to the number of
compilers and other utilities I have. The second point looks like it
is different between NT and XP (I don't have 2K installed, but I would
guess it is the same).


* For Windows XP systems:

     - Right-click "My Computer", then select "Properties";
     - Click the  "Advanced" tab, then select "Environment Variables"
;
     - Edit the PATH system variable to add the DJGPP\bin
subdirectory;
     - Add a new variable DJGPP and set its value to the full path
       name of the DJGPP.ENV file as explained below.
