The readme file says to add CALL mydir\djgpp\bin\setdjgpp mydir/djgpp mydir\djgpp to my AUTOEXEC.BAT with the UNIX file directory syntax first and the DOS syntax second. This results in environment variables having mixed DOS and UNIX file directory syntax with the top level directory in DOS format and the subdirectories in UNIX format. However, the embedded help section of setdjgpp.bat says the order is to be reversed: DOS syntax first and then UNIX. Then the env variables are wholly in UNIX syntax. The tryit.bat facility seems to generate the same working hello executable with the same message displayed for BOTH sets of env variables. Which form is "correct"? Thanks in advance for help with this simple-minded question.
