   Newbie question..but I've been getting frustrated...
   I can't seem to get djgpp to compile any of my c++ programs...
   What am i doing wrong...I know my progs will compile becuase I can compile 
   them at school with g++.  What is the command to compile c++ progs with djgpp
   I've read all the faqs I could I don't understand what I'm doing wrong..
   HHHHHHEEEEEEEEEEELLLLLLLLLPPPPPPPPP I'm going insane


The gcc driver program recognizes and compiles gas, C, Objective-C, and C++ by
the filename extension.  C++ programs are named file.cc.  Gcc may recognize
file.C internally as the UNIX gcc does, but under DOS file.c and file.C are
indistinguishable names so it will think it is a C program.  However, the older
file.cpp and file.c++ conventions are not recognized.
