The most probable cause for this is that you have an old version of 
info.  The original release of DJGPP v2.01 had a bug in info.exe that 
would behave like you described.  Please make sure that your txi390b.zip 
archive is dated October 29, 1996 or later; info.exe inside it should 
have the following directory entry:

	166912  10-24-96  22:51   bin/info.exe

If yours is earlier, please download and install the latest release.
