If Rainer (the author) would just release a new version that fixes the problems that he inadvertantly created, then all would be well with the world. I know that sounds cold, but that's the way it is. You can't release a package into the public arena and expect people to work things out for them selfs, it needs to be tech-supported and revised. Rainer should take the feedback on this newsgroup as a hint. The reason it's still suggested in the zip picker is a) nobody has bothered changeing it and b) the other compilers (mingw32 and cygwin) aren't related to DJGPP, whereas RSXNTDJ is (supposed to be) a DJGPP add-on. -- Johan Venter ICQ 3643877 surf.to/djgppig
