Hi there,

Here are two problems when I run DJGPP's (Version 2) gmake/gcc on PC
Win95
(Pentium 200 with MKS installed).

1. The gcc can not recognize the file/directory names which are longer
than 8 characters.
2. The gmake can not execute the compiling commands which are longer
than 128 bytes.

As my understanding, these are the restrictions caused by DOS's
command.com.
However, the MKS is the emulation environment of UNIX running on PC.
These two problems do not exist when I used MKS/make and microsoft C
compiler.

Since I  need to use gmake and gcc instead of MKS/make, is there
anything I can do
to solve this problem  (such as modified the configuration files in MKS,

e.q. compiler.ccg or starup.mk ) ??

I cannot access the newgroup from my machine now, please forward you
suggestion/answers to the following email address:

I appreciate any help that you would provide!!
