The only difference I noticed is that in the second one you put an '//'
before getch(), suposedly to make the compiler ignore the line.
I think there's somewhere on a readme file which comes with djgpp that '//'
is not recognized as a remark.
However, you still can use /* */ or just erase the line.
First try putting /* before and */ after the line you want to remark.
If it still doesn't work, erase that line.
Hope this helps.
