    The makefile.djg is designed for ndmake.exe--- not the make distributed
    with DJGPP.

    Did you try ESC-X compile?  Since DOS does not multitask, the
compileation is ran as a subprocess.  When it finshes, control returns to
the editor.  SImply press Ctrl-X ' to go from one error to the other.
