Anyway: A lot of web sites seem to be putting up instructions on what to get and how to install it independently; maybe some of these are not 100% correct, and the people who are having difficulty might not have read readme.1st at all. On a related note, perhaps the DJGPP Installer could fix this problem once and for all. I never managed to make it work, though, and I already have a full working installation ;) -- George Foot (george DOT foot AT merton DOT ox DOT ac DOT uk) Merton College, Oxford.
