You shouldn't have had to move make anywhere.  In your autoexec.bat
file, there should be a line like this

PATH=C:\DJGPP;C:\DJGPP\BIN;C:\WINDOWS;C:\WINDOWS\COMMAND;

That tells the OS to look in all of those directories for programs
that you start at the command prompt.  Like if make is in
C:\djgpp\bin, where it's supposed to be, you can be in
C:\djgpp\ALLEGRO\demo and run make with no problem.  Also, when you
run make, it looks in the current directory for a file called
makefile.  If it dosen't find one, it asks you for one.
