Seems to work perfectly.

I just modified the existing djgpp.env file and added all of the extra
directorys etc. manually. I took a bit of messing around, and gave me some
very strange errors whilst I was trying to get it working, but it now works
perfectly. If you want i'll email you the config file, which could save time
arsing around.

One last thing - does anyone have any idea where I could find PlatformBin.exe
on the microsoft ftp site. I downloaded their ls-lR.Z file, and
PlatformBin.exe is not on it anywhere. Or, if the files have changed name,
could somebody tell me what they are now called.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
