Or do I just have to use DJGPP build27? There shouldn't be any problem at all. I've heard from several people who are using more recent versions of gcc and binutils than the ones RSXNTDJ expects, and they say that there have been no problems. One person even said that PGCC seems to work fine. I recently designed a new distribution for RSXNTDJ that should be easier to install and use, and designed to work with the newer tools. I haven't finished it yet, but I'll announce here when I think it's ready. It might be a patching ZIP, with new installation instructions and updates to various files, or it might be a whole new distribution -- but I'm not sure about the legality of that, since RSXNTDJ is not under the same sort of license as djgpp. I probably won't be releasing this until after the djgpp v2.02 release. I'd also appreciate the help of anybody who uses RSXNTDJ a lot, for testing purposes -- I need to make sure my changes don't break anything. Please let me know if you can help or have any suggestions for patches that should be included in this. -- george DOT foot AT merton DOT oxford DOT ac DOT uk xu do tavla fo la lojban -- http://xiron.pc.helsinki.fi/lojban/lojban.html
