 Hi all,

   I just installed GNU's GCC & G77 distribution from DJGPP on a
WinNT 4.0 Workstation.  As a way of showing the version, I entered "g77
-v" and got this response:

g77 version 0.5.19
 gcc -v -fnull-version -o C:\TEMP\gfaaaaaa -xf77-cpp-input /dev/null
-xnone (LF/CR)
gcc.exe: /dev/null: No such file or directory (ENOENT)
gcc version 2.7.2.1.f.1

Questions:
#1) what is that file in the c:\temp directory for?

#2) what is with that "/dev/null"?  This is not a UNIX machine.  I
created the \dev\null both off the root and the \gnu\djgpp\bin (the
installation directory) but it didn't like that.  How to fix?

#3) also, I didn't find a djgpp.env file anywhere.  Do I need that?  Is
that the problem?  Shouldn't it have been included in the distribution?

Thanks in advance for all help contributed.
