So how about telling us what prevents you from debugging it? If you don't know what to do with those funny numbers printed when it crashes, section 9.2 of the DJGPP FAQ list will explain how to use a small wonder called `symify.exe' which is lurking in your bin/ subdirectory to see where in your source it crashes. If you cannot figure out what's wrong with that code, run the program under debugger near the place where it bombs and try to see why does it go awry. Chapter 12 in the FAQ tells about debugging, in case you have trouble. If you still can't figure it out, post the crash traceback, after running `symify' on it, here. In many cases, esperienced people here will be able to tell you what problems might cause such a crash. Posting the code fragment near the locus of the crash is also a good idea. In case you didn't know, the FAQ is available as v2/faq210b.zip from the same place you get DJGPP.
