Subject: djgpp 2.00.beta2 is out


DJGPP Version 2.00.beta2 is now available in the usual locations.

Please report bugs through http://www.delorie.com/djgpp/'s V2
selection.

Note that the ftp site in Europe may take a while to sync up.

The ^Z at EOF problem is fixed in libc.a, but only make was relinked
with the new library.

Documentation is online at http://www.delorie.com/djgpp/doc

README.1ST
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
This is the README.1ST file for DJGPP Version 2, currently in Beta.

I recommend you install DJGPP V2 in a separate directory from DJGPP V1
until it is out of beta, just in case you cannot work around bugs you
find.  This version is not officially supported, and is being made
available as part of the testing phase of djgpp development.

Status and other information are made available through the djgpp web
pages at http://www.delorie.com/, through the djgpp news group
(comp.os.msdos.djgpp) and djgpp mailing list (subscribe through
listserv AT sun DOT soe DOT clarkson DOT edu).  Look on the web page for information
on the latest versions.

Report bugs through http://www.delorie.com/djgpp/beta/

If you do not have web access, mail bug reports to
djgpp-v2-bugs AT delorie DOT com, where someone will manually enter them into
the web-based bug tracking system.

For anything else, send me mail (dj AT delorie DOT com).

Version information is in manifest/*.ver within each zip.  Contents
are in manifest/*.mft in each zip.

If you got these file at anywhere other than an official FTP site
(listed in info.ftp at the ftp site), please send me e-mail.


At the time of writing this file, the various packages are:

djdev200 Development Kit and Runtime (required)
djlsr200 Base Library Sources
djtst200 Test Programs
mak373b  GNU Make 3.73 for V2 (recommended)
mak373s  GNU Make 3.73 sources
gcc263b  GNU GCC 2.6.3 for V2 (recommended)
gpp263b  GNU G++ 2.6.3 for V2 (no libs)
obc263b  GNU ObjC 2.6.3 for V2
gcc263s  GNU GCC 2.6.3 sources
gcc263l  GNU GCC 2.6.3 libgcc.a only - for cross compiling
bnu252b  GNU binutils 2.5.2 for V2 (recommended)
bnu252s  GNU binutils 2.5.2 sources
gdb412b  GNU Debugger 4.12 for DJGPP V2
gdb412s  GNU Debugger 4.12 sources
lgp262b  GNU libg++ 2.6.2 for DJGPP V2
lgp262s  GNU libg++ 2.6.2 sources
txi310b  GNU texinfo 3.10 for DJGPP V2
txi310s  GNU texinfo 3.10 sources

Existing binaries from V1 can be used for other applications.  V1
programs cannot run V2 programs, so make and gcc are being made
available as V2 programs.

You must also provide a DPMI environment.  Look for CWSDPMI at the
beta sites if you don't have DPMI already (it's in os2, nt, win3.1,
qdpmi, 386max, etc).
