;)        Hello all.. i been on the list for about a month since i
;)reinstalled djgpp112. I have a question regarding the executables
;)tha djgpp makes. I just noticed that when i dont have the djgpp
;)environment or /bin in my path ( as i use a boot disk to setup
;)all the relavent paths and such when programming) my executables
;)dont run.  The error i get is "Cannont exec go32"
;)
;)        Are these executables only valid when i have djgpp installed
;)and setup in the paths? How can i generate exec that will run as normal
;).EXE files?
;)                Thanks..


You need to have go32.exe somewhere in your path. coff2exe binds a stub
program to your program which loads go32.exe, then runs your program.
apparently 'copy /b go32.exe+<yourprg> <yourprg>.exe' will build
a self contained program.
