Hi!

I'm afraid I'm missing something pretty obvious, but I've been stuck
now for almost a week, so I'd very much appreciate any help you could
shed on my problem:
I've been using V1.39 (or so) for some time and found it a good idea
to switch to V2.00 beta 3. I ftp'ed all the necessary and recommended
files, unzipped them etc.
I followed the magic line recommended by DJ for installation:

set DJGPP=C:\DJGPP\DJGPP.ENV

and, you guessed it, nothing works: I can get the compiler running,
but whether I use a Makefile or launch it manually, it is unable to
find _anything_: Neither header-files nor libraries...
When I force a certain path upon it (-I, -L), it finds some of the
files, but then emits other weird errors, like syntax errors in
DJGPP-headers.

Running SETDJGPP yielded the same result. After some experimenting I
noticed that the very existence of DJGPP.ENV seems completely irrelevant:
Nothing changes, even if I delete this file. It's simply ignored.

What gives? (Yes, I've checked the paths, re-ran AUTOEXEC.BAT etc.)
And, by the way, could some kind soul explain to me the way DJGPP.ENV
works? I've been browsing through DOS and UNIX-manuals, but could come
up with nothing.

Thanks in advance. Please no REPLY with e-mail, since this account of
mine is kind of preliminary. If you don't want to waste bandwidth, mail
to the address below.

Thanks, Elmar
