Hi,
please help me. I'm a student and there s no mmachine in my school's
academic lab, that have compilers for C++ (only for Java). There are
some in department lab, which is almost always closed. I downloaded the
whole DJGPP distribution and unziped them to DJGPP dir.  go32-v2.exe
displayed (running Win95, 486/133MMhz + 24 RAM
       DPMI memory available: 17303 kb
       DPMI swap space available: 4341 kb
I also installed (well, just unziped) rhide IDE with its GUI.
Next thing I did, I added this to my autoexec.bat:
      set DJGPP=F:\DJGPP\DJGPP.ENV
set PATH=F:\DJGPP\BIN;%PATH%
and tried to compile a basic multiplication program (7 lines) and ve got
this message at the bottom of the Rhide's GUI:
Compiling: F:/DJGPP/bin/test.cpp
Error in DJGPP instalation
Enviroment variable DJGPP is not defined
There were some errors

Then I tried to add a line DJGPP=DJGPP\DJGPP.ENV and other various
things, but still get that same message. Please, help me. I have
assignment for this Wednesday to write a prog. for checking account and
don't know what to do.
I'd very appreciate any advice, or whatever.. Thanks
