I'm using djgpp (1.11maint4) and installed it in a directory d:\gcc. I can compile the test programs athat are in d:\gcc\samples\hello, or any other program in the \gcc\samples directory, for that matter, but I can't compile a program in a directory outside of \gcc. (\gcc\bin is in my autoexec.bat path.) Now, if I copy a file into the \gcc\samples directory (or \gcc\samples\hello or anything like that), I can compile just fine. But if I create a directory like d:\cprogs and try to compile from there, I get a "Turbo C++..." message and an error. Any suggestions on how to solve this problem? Also, I'm trying to re-compile some of my programs that I wrote in Turbo C, and I'm having a little difficulty because some of Turbo C's include files don't exactly coincide with GCC's. For instance, sound() and gotoxy(), found in dos.h and conio.h, respectively, in Turbo C, are entirely absent from GCC. Is there a workaround for this, as I cannot seem to locate any function in the GCC header files for producing a tone? Thank you very much for your assistance. ---Michael Phelps morphine AT cs DOT jhu DOT edu
