Then why can I compile a file with the .cc or .cpp extension using gxx but
not with gcc? It doesn't work on my system, not unless I specify that my
file has to link with -lstdcxx. Apparantly, I'm not the only one who suffers
from this problem. No, the FAQ doesn't help (I've followed the instructions
perfectly) - but the Zip Picker said use gxx and that's what I've been doing
for the past eight months or so that I've been using DJGPP.
