Can some-one better explain part 3. of the following install files.
2. Unzip all the zip files from that directory, preserving the
directory structure. For example:pkunzip -d djdev203
or
unzip32 djdev203On Windows 9X, use an unzip program which supports long file names.
Latest versions of InfoZip's UnZip and PKUnZip, as well as WinZip,
all support long file names. unzip32.exe, available from the DJGPP
sites, also supports long file names. One way to make sure you have
preserved long file names is to look for a file include/sys/sysmacros.h:
if you see only sysmacro.h instead, your unzip program does NOT
support long filenames, and you need to find another one.3. After unzipping all the zip files, set the DJGPP environment
variable to point to the file DJGPP.ENV in the main DJGPP
installation directory and add its BIN subdirectory to your PATH.The exact way how these variables should be set depends on your
operating system:* For Windows 98 systems:
- Click START;
- Choose Programs->Accessories->System Tools->System Information;
- Click Tools in the menu-bar, then choose "System Configuration";
- Use the tab provided there for editing your AUTOEXEC.BAT as
explained below.* For Windows NT systems:
- Right-click "My Computer", then select "Properties";
- Click the "Environment" tab;
- Edit the PATH system variable to add the DJGPP bin subdirectory;
- Add a new variable DJGPP and set its value to the full path
name of the DJGPP.ENV file as explained below.* For all other systems (DOS, Windows 3.X and Windows 95): use any
text editor, e.g. the standard EDIT, to edit the file
AUTOEXEC.BAT in the root directory of the boot drive (usually,
C:).No matter which method you use, assuming your DJGPP installation is
rooted at C:\DJGPP, the values of the two environment variables
DJGPP and PATH should be set like this:set DJGPP=C:\DJGPP\DJGPP.ENV
set PATH=C:\DJGPP\BIN;%PATH%4. Reboot. This makes sure the two lines you added to autoexec.bat
will take effect. (On Windows NT and Windows 2000, the changes
take effect immediately, so you don't need to reboot there, but
you do have to close and reopen the DOS box windows.)I have unzipped the nessary files into the defult folder.

You basically need to go into the Environment tab and then tell the system where the files are located. Look at your existing lines for an idea of the syntax. You shouldn't have to do too much. Look at the program's website for helpfiles, I'm sure it can help you with the correct syntax....

How do you install it on xp? Please email me for i might not ever find this site again due to the fact i am on a friend's computer.
