I see. Djgpp is kind of a platypus, isn't it?

I've spent enough time in both worlds that I claim to "backslash fatigue
syndrome," where a person can't tell the difference anymore, except by
things like compiler complaints.

I made a screenshot downthread (and uploaded the correct one) that shows
the djgpp download for one of the many mirror sites.  I seem to be unclear
as to what my goal would be with sucha download.  What consitutes a djgpp
install for winxp 686?
