You should set the variable DJGPP to whereever you installed
DJGPP. (Use DJGPP instead of DJDIR above.)

Now might be some another problems. Do you have a LFN driver
installed? If not, then you should use "D:\programm" or "D:\progra~1"
or some other short file name WINDOZE invented for you instead of
"D:\programme". The easiest way to correct this is to install DJGPP
into "D:\DJGPP" instead (note no more than 8 characters per
directory).

: Second (Smaller) problem. Davis writes to add the line : LANGUAGE=DE in the djgpp.env, to make Rhide run in German. This Line also doesn<X>t work.

: Can you help me with this also?

That's bad advice. You should (almost) never edit DJGPP.ENV. Just add
that variable and its value whereever you added DJGPP.


Right,
