Shawn:

I did everyhing precisely as you said--I think I picked this WIP up within
hours of when you put it on--and it did not work. Yes, I had the patch.exe
installled in djgpp\bin, fine. But there was a bad thing in the make file,
the one you included with the diff. Really. It must be an old make file.
Not right. If I am wrong, god help me, I am sorry, but is that make file
right?
