> I have set up djgpp according to the README and gcc works fine but I can't
seem to get a c++ prog to compile.  Would someone kindly point out where in
the DOCs I might find instructions for c++ compiles? It's for a community
college c++ course which starts next week, so there's some urgency. Thanks,

  If you type 'gcc filename':-
  If the filename ends in '.c', it is treated as C.
  If the filename ends in '.cc', it is treated as C++.
  If the filename ends in '.s', it is treated as a sort of assembler code
which is an intermediate stage in compilation.
  If the filename ends in '.o', it is treated as fully compiled and ready for
linking.
  If the filename ends in '.c', it is treated as C.
    These filename suffixes must be in <lowercase> in the gcc call.
