I don't think anybody recommends cobbling together pieces of 2.04 with 2.03p2. Just use 2.04 if you want / need those headers and functions. It's easier and works fine. cd \djgpp bin\rm @manifest/djdev203.mft unzip \tmp\djdev204.zip > > Having never used Intellisense, I can't say for sure what the 100% > > .... > > SETEDIT, JED, Mined, GNU Emacs, FTE. > > :) I'm ok with typing, just been spoiled thats all. > As for the make tools etc I can learn what I don't know. There are other make-like tools (e.g. cbuild), but GNU stuff typically uses GNU make. > Tried emacs last night, it was ok prob better if I memorize the hot > keys. Don't memorize anything that you don't have to: at any time you can read the tutorial ("C-h t") or the Info docs ("C-h i") or "C-h f" to describe a function or "C-h k" to describe a key combo ... or just use the menus. :-) Even "C-h a" will do "apropos", e.g. find any function with the word "replace" (or whatever you want) in it. It's really meant to be extremely well-documented. > I'll try some others tonight. VIM I think I will delete LOL. Emacs (and even Jed) can emulate vi anyways, if ever desired. (Vim used to have an Emacs emulation, but it didn't work with latest version when I tried it.) I just felt like mentioning it since Vim is so hugely popular (news://comp.editors is almost 99% about Vim questions). > The network card I got is: > Orinoco Classic Gold 802.11b WiFi Wireless PCMCIA Card > According to thier website it is DOS compatable. > If not I'll get another one. But my fingers are crossed. LOL Hey, if they say it works, it probably does. Good luck!
