Subject: Recent GRX install questions

Several recent posters asked why the GRX "make install" option does not
work any more. Pre-1.03 GRX top-level makefile-s supported this target,
with the following effect:

  COPY c:\djgpp\contrib\libgrx\include\*.h c:\djgpp\include
  COPY c:\djgpp\contrib\libgrx\lib\*.a c:\djgpp\lib

(or similar -- depending where you installed DJGPP.)
This target was removed as of 1.03 to reduce the chance of
mixing incompatible versions. If you insist, perform the above
two COPY-s menually, but it is generally better to include the
appropriate GRX sub-directories in your include and library 
paths. 

To REBUILD GRX (note: not install!) you need the Turbo C make.
Reason: I am trying to support a Turbo C version of GRX as well,
and the Turbo C make seemed to be the best compromise for this.

Why are there 'make.bat' files instead of makefile-s: To reduce memory
usage by the recursive invocations of make in the various GRX
sub-dirs.

Hope this answers many questions.
