First I did with Winzip under Win98, and of course, it worked. But I want to use DJGPP also on an old 486-Laptop with a 40MB-HDD, so there's not enough space for Win98. So I first copied as is on that Laptop, and after it didn't work, I set +LFN=N, but it still didn't work. And last but not least I copied the Zip-File on the Laptop and unzipped them there (with PKunzip supporting LFN's) and set +LFN=N again, but that also didn't work. > If so, I think you will find that streambuf.h is shortened to stream~1.h, > not to streambu.h. The latter would have worked in plain DOS mode. I've had both versions, steamb~1.h and streambu.h; none of them worked. > > but I've also set +LFN=N, so it should work, shouldn't it? > > Setting LFN has no effect on DOS, only on Windows. > > What you want, or so it seems, is a dual-boot system where you can > compile and run programs both in plain DOS and on Windows. If so, the > DJGPP FAQ explains how to set up such a system in section 22.19. As I discribed in the first answer, I want to run DJGPP on a Laptop that only can run a little OS, such as MS-DOS or Caldera-DOS (I also minimized the OS-installations to less than 1MB, so I've got 39MB for DJGPP). Thanks so far for your help. cu CJ
