Howdy,

1. What do you recommend as a basic text editor in djgpp?  Something that 
honours whitespace properly (unlike MS Edit) but isn't huge like RHIDE, 
and is not vi?  I'd love to use Joe but I can't get it to compile.

Anyway, main query
2. Why is getenv("TMPDIR") returning "c:\djgpp\tmp" (back slashes) when from 
bash, TMPDIR is definitely set with forward slashes?  Thanks in advance 
for help on this one, it's driving me... buggy!  :)
