Yes.

It's called DJGPP.  You should set it like this:

     set DJGPP=c:\djgpp\djgpp.env

This assumes that you installed DJGPP in c:\djgpp; if not, change the
above line accordingly.  Usually, this line is put into autoexec.bat,
but try it from the command line first to make sure it works.

And make sure that the file djgpp.env was NOT edited!  If it was,
unzip the original version from djdev202.zip.

I hope you didn't set DJDIR in the environment; if you did, unset it
and set DJGPP instead, as described above.  And if you edited
djgpp.env to set DJDIR, please revert to the original djgpp.env, since
editing it is usually the reason for such trouble.

Note that all these instructions are explained in so many words in the
file called readme.1st which comes with djdev202.zip and which you
should read before using DJGPP.
