Sounds to me like your forgot to set DJGPP=E:\DJ\DJGPP.ENV. If you compile a
C++ program from DOS, i recommend using GXX not GCC. GCC forgets to link in
COUT, CIN, etc. Either that or compile GCC CHEAP.CC -o CHEAP.EXE -lgpp

P.S. you can chage the 2nd cout line to cout << " Out the Window!!\n";
or       cout <<" Out the window!!" << endl;
    and both cout commands will be on the same line.
