it may not help i have a WFWG3.11 and dos6.22 system and my autoexec.bat
file is  SET DJGPP=D:\DJGPP\DJGPP.ENV
PATH=C:\WINDOWS;C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM;C:\DOS;C:\XTG; C:\UTES;D:\djgpp\bin
now i know this works,if the system is something other than this then i
can'nt say for sure that the above answer is right,i vaguely remember
reading a similar problem to this and someone saying it did'nt really
matter,i altered my own autoexec.bat to refect this and it worked ok
both ways,so the problem may be elsewhere,i would make sure that the
djgpp.env file is in the root dir of where you put djgpp as persec
d:\djgpp,djgpp would be your root dir,so it would go there,its not a
good idea to edit this file unless you really have to,if u have the
latest binaries and using C++ then u will have to,make sure that you
have the make.exe file in your djgpp\bin dir, and go to your allegro
root dir and type make and thats it. cheers,hope this helps Gary Lloyd >
