Subject: GCC environment discussion getting out of hand To: djgpp AT ecolan DOT sbs DOT ohio-state DOT edu Date: Fri, 28 Aug 92 15:11:11 EDT From: Stephen Turnbull Sender: turnbull AT ecolan DOT sbs DOT ohio-state DOT edu Hey guys, while I agree with Chris, Eric, at al. that the environment is the way to communicate these parameters, I sympathize with the MS-DOS folks' desire to "simplify" the configuration (ie, do it the way other DOS programs usually do). I hope they won't go off and create a patched version of DJGPP to satisfy that desire, though, because once that happens the two "cultures" may start to diverge and it will be harder to share programs and techniques. Which is what DJGPP is all about, right? Can't we cool out a little bit?
