I know this is the file that's Exec'ed as I start up windows because if i type "SET" at the DOS box prompt it lists: (BTW I followed the zip pick guide and it gave me the same file, the DOS box is on the standard -ie system- configuration. ) ===(Dump of command "SET") Microsoft(R) Windows 98 (C)Copyright Microsoft Corp 1981-1998.

Yes, I have used info a little and experienced no problem moving around and between the topics. The dumps of "go32-v2", "gcc" and "gpp" with no arguments are below. == C:\DJGPP>go32-v2 go32/v2 version 2.0 built Nov 15 1998 14:36:43 Usage: go32 coff-image [args] Rename this to go32.exe only if you need a go32 that can run v2 binaries as well as v1 binaries (old makefiles). Put ahead of the old go32 in your PATH but do not delete your old go32 - leave it in the PATH after this one. Set GO32_V2_DEBUG=y in the environment to get verbose output.

What happens if you just type "gcc" and press [Enter]? Yes, I tried a very simple piece of code, just a main with a line to print some text, that crashed too. I had tried the gcc command with no arguements, but it gives the following output. == C:\DJGPP>gcc gcc.exe: No input files == C:\DJGPP>gpp gpp.exe: No input files
