This is pissing me off. I can't compile a damn thing. Ok this is what
I've done. PLEASE HELP!!!!!
I've installed the following files into c:\dgjpp
allegro312.zip
bnu2951.zip
djdev203.zip
faq230b.zip
gcc2952b.zip
gpp2952b.zip (When I installed this, it asked me if I wanted to
overwrite cxxfilt.exe, I did)
ma3791b.zip
rhide1478b.zip
txi40b.zip

Ok I typed this into autoexec.bat and ran it:
path=c:\windows\command;c:\djgpp\bin;
set djgpp=c:\djgpp\djgpp.env

I typed this in DOS:
setdjgpp c:\djgpp c:/djgpp

I went into the Allegro folder and typed this:
make

... and I sat for an hour. Rebooted my machine and tried many different
programs. Many different errors came up. Some came up when I tried it
with rhide and other errors when I tried it in the dos console. Eg.
"virtual memory exhausted." I tried compiling an example in dos, gcc
ex1.c -lalleg
when I pressed enter I heard the hard drive making sounds and then
nothing happened. The prompt just came up again, as if nothing was typed
in.

Please Please Please this is driving me crazy. I've installed djgpp 4
times trying to pinpoint my problem. NOTHING!!!

Please help,
Paul M.
