DJGPP comes with a DOS-based TexInfo reader called info.exe which
is used to read the documentation in hypertext format. You can also
use it to read the FAQ as well. I have found that it is extremely simple
to locate anything I need using this system - the table of contents is
very clearly defined and the index is quite useful. Every C function
in DJGPP is also documented in the standard distribution files.
One note: If you get the Info reader, I think you have to manually add
an entry for the FAQ in the 'dir' file in the info subdirectory (unless the
latest distributions of txi360b include this entry.) You can also get there
directly by typing "info -f djgppfaq.inf".
And any problems not covered by the docs and/or the FAQ can be
answered by us loveable online folks. :)
