And I bet you can't make any DJGPP programs either.
I hope you kept all your DJGPP zips because you need to re-install all
of them. It is best to wipe your DJGPP folder and start again.

Once you have repaired your DJGPP, make a new folder (say C:MINGW) and
unzip MingW into there.


Now make two batch files in C:\

SETDJ.BAT
set DJDIR=C:\DJGPP
set DJGPP=C:/DJGPP/DJGPP.ENV
set PATH=C:\DJGPP\BIN;C:\WINDOWS;C:\WINDOWS\COMMAND
set MINGDIR=

and

SETMING.BAT
set DJDIR=
set DJGPP=
set PATH=C:\MINGW\BIN;C:\WINDOWS;C:\WINDOWS\COMMAND
set MINGDIR=C:\MINGW


Adjust the directories as you need them

You can put SETDJ or SETMING in your autoexec.bat if you want. You can
switch between them with C:\SETDJ or C:\SETMING from the command line.
Each batch file will enable one compiler and disable the other, so you
can test your programs with both.

DJGPP and MinGW32 are both versions of gcc, so they use all the same
filenames but they are not compatible, so be careful to unzip
utilities in the right folder.
