i noticed your having the same problem, i am getting the djgpp to work.
i am no professional and do not even know what i am doing. well i know what i am doing and why. i am not sure it is going to work. i just have to keep working unitl it does. i asked the same question you did and got almost the same answer. i will tell what i decided to do.
i knew i was not going to get the program to run unless i explored it.
i think everyone and their family has worked building, modifying, and inventing
so i cracked into it and started opening folders and their directories.
i am finding out the beauty of why everyone is attracted to this program, you can open any folder (just a few you can't) with note pad.
i organized them (after all this is a lego*? program) according to function. i have learned a lot about the program it's self. i believe when i do get it up and going i will be able to understand the compiler in more depth.
in otherwards, do what you want with it. you can always get another. just wanted to let you know i am in the same boat. if you want to know how i have organized let me know. i have not got it up and running yet. most of the folders to this program you will begin to find out are information that iis informative to running the program. you will find out there is a hand ful that run the program. when you start opening them (if you downloaded them from the delories site), you will notice that all the folders have the same folder names but different (. text). keep a set of those folders. good luck
if you want to know more let me know
