When building GNU programs from source, it helps to have bash, make, shell, file, and text utilities. Some time ago, I actually did get gcal to build by using the configure script. However, I just moved to a new computer, and don't have djgpp installed yet so I can't check with the version you are referring to. In any case, if you have the makefile you mentioned, I would suggest issuing the command make -f Makefile.djg in bash (making sure you have the aformentioned utilites installed). Then post any specific problems you encounter. hth. Sinan.
