Do NOT change DJGPP.ENV at all!  If you did change it already, unzip the 
original version from djdev201.zip and overwrite the changed one with it.

Then, type this from the DOS command line:

	set LFN=y
	set DJGPP=c:/djgpp/djgpp.env
	set PATH=c:\djgpp\bin;%PATH%

(If you installed DJGPP in a directory other than c:\djgpp, change these 
two lines accordingly.)

Make sure there are no blanks around the equals character `=' in these 
two lines, many people get problems because of that.

If after that, something still doesn't work, please post here the exact 
description of the problems, including any error messages you see.

If it does work, you can add the above three line to your AUTOEXEC.BAT 
file, so that these settings are automatically done for you.  Make sure 
your AUTOEXEC.BAT doesn't modify PATH after the place where you put these 
lines!
