Subject: DMAKE and DJGPP

Has anyone compiled DMAKE under DJGPP?  I don't know what complications
might exist with it, since I suspect some MSDOS assumptions in DMAKE would
be valid and others might not under DJGPP.

I'm also having problems installing DMAKE (w/o DJGPP) and just thought
that if someone has a "ready to run" DMAKE already compiled that may
serve my needs for the moment (I still want to track down why I can't
get DMAKE installed; it should be easy).

Since I just did install DJGPP, I thought I would pass along, while it is
still fresh in mind, one very minor glitch I ran into.  The installation
instructions specified 3 files to unzip (I also unzipped the DOCs), but
no mention was made of where to get the VGA drivers as specified on the
GO32 variable.  I got mine out of DJLGR which I had also downloaded to
explore.  I don't know if it is essential to have, but the installation
instructions do not say it is optional, and also do not say where to get
it from (other than djgpp/drivers/SOMETHING.grd).  Since I had explored
the zip files first, I knew where it was, but I guess this might be another
thing to change in the instructions.
