Hello,
	If I try to run make on a directory other than \djgpp\bin eg.
\allegrosource ,  I get a 'bad command or file name' error. I have put
djgpp in my path and set the environment variable, and everything
works just fine within \djgpp\bin. I thought that setting the PATH
variable in DOS makes it search for a file in each of the named
directories in order. Is this incorrect?
