Here is how I did it.  I am using rsxdj131, djdev202, gcc281b, gpp281b,
lgp2811b, and bnu281b on WindowsNT 4.0.

I followed the instructions for installing DJGPP.  Next, I unzipped
rsxdj131 into my DJGPP directory.  This created a directory called
RSXNTDJ.  I ran the program README.EXE from the RSXNTDJ/DOC directory
and carefully followed the instructions under section "2. Installation."

The last thing I did was to update the line after "*link:" in the SPECS
file in RSXNTDJ/LIB to:

%{Zwin32: -Lyour_djgpp_directory_name/rsxntdj/lib/all %{Zmt:
-Lyour_djgpp_directory_name/rsxntdj/lib/mt} %{!Zmt:
-Lyour_djgpp_directory_name/rsxntdj/lib/st}}

(Note that your_djgpp_directory_name must be replaced by your particular
DJGPP installation directory)

The sample programs compiled and ran without difficulty using the
existing makefiles.

Be aware, however, that the windows header and library files are badly
out of date.  I downloaded the DRDX package from:

http://bbs.para.co.kr/~bng/drdx/drdx.html

which fixes a lot of the windows header and library files.  Good luck.
