Try to learn under Windows is no fun. If I don't know how to use C++ well enough for MFC or Direct-X, I'm stuck with the console. See what I mean when I say no fun?? So, I want to learn C++ using DOS as my target OS. But first I would like to know: Should I use native DOS, or will a Win98 DOS box work fine?? I have found many places to download DJGPP, but at each place the files are slightly different. It seems many different versions are out there. Where can I get the latest version? Any warnings? Advice? Thanks, Goodgulf
