Could you help me by clearing : this up? You mean: 3. After unzipping all the zip files, set the DJGPP environment variable to point to the file DJGPP.ENV in the main DJGPP installation directory and add its BIN subdirectory to your PATH. Assuming your DJGPP installation is rooted at C:\DJGPP, put these two lines into your autoexec.bat file: set DJGPP=C:\DJGPP\DJGPP.ENV set PATH=C:\DJGPP\BIN;%PATH% You need to open the file C:\AUTOEXEC.BAT in an editor and insert two lines: "set DJGPP=C:\DJGPP\DJGPP.ENV set PATH=C:\DJGPP\BIN;%PATH%" (without the quotes) and then save the file and reboot. If you unzipped the files into another directory, say "E:\FFF\BLURP\DJGPP", you need to replace the string "C:\DJGPP" with "E:\FFF\BLURP\DJGPP" above. Right, MartinS
