Hello everyone,

Well, I recently installed Borland 5 and it really messed DJGPP up. It
turns out that Borland calls gcc in order to compile, so it conflicts
with DJGPP's gcc... so I uninstalled Borland, it's gone. Now I am having
troubles.

I can not compile anything with DJGPP now. It says my installation is
bad, I reinstalled it with some basic packages and it still doesn't
work. If you could let me know what causes these errors then maybe I
could find out if there are remnants of the Borland installation around.
If they can be fixed, that would be great as well. Here are some
specifics:

Here are some errors, copied and pasted, with the commands:

	C:\Temp>gxx test.c
	gxx.exe: installation problem, cannot exec `cpp': No such 
	file or directory (ENOENT)

	NOTE: cpp.exe exists in this path: 
		  c:\dev\djgpp\lib\gcc-lib\djgpp\2.81
		  (I hope that's the right place)

When I run RHIDE a message comes up that says the following:

	"RHIDE has detected, that the environment variable DJDIR
	has not been set (or not correct). This is a fatal
	mistake. For information about fixing this, please read
	the File README.1ST from the DJGPP distribution. (about
	setting the DJGPP environment variable!!!) Should I
	continue?"

My autoexec.bat file contains the following:

	@ECHO OFF
	SET PATH=C:\PROGRA~1\MCAFEE~1;C:\DEV\PERL\BIN
	SET PATH=C:\DEV\DJGPP\BIN;%PATH%
	SET DJGPP=C:\DEV\DJGPP\DJGPP.ENV

I installed the folling packages:

	djdev202.zip
	bnu281b.zip
	gcc281b.zip
	gpp281b.zip
	lgp2811b.zip
	mak377b.zip
	objc281b.zip
	rhid147b.zip

I have been using DJGPP for a while now, so I assure you the paths are
correct and all of that good stuff. Thanks for your help. By the way, I
am using Windows98.
