Some days ago, I asked: >1. I use 'gcc c.c' on my 386 with DOS 4.01 and the compiler > comes up with the error message: > d:\gcc\cpp: d:\/ccAA_AAA.cpp: access denied > What can I do to fix this? Someone suggests I do not set up the env. vars correctly. Now I am using: set gcclib=d:/gcc/lib set gcctmp=d:/gcc/tmp set gccinc=d:/gcc/inc set gccbin=d:/gcc/bin in my autoexec.bat. And of course all the directories have been created, install.bat has been run (after changing cp to copy) and path=d:\gcc\bin has been set up. And guess what? I am getting exactly the same error from gcc. Someone says gcc works OK with DOS 3.3 but I can't try it. My C and D drives are each > 32 M. Has anyone run gcc successfully on DOS 4.01? What can I do to fix this? Thanks again! Brian

I had it running at one time under dos 3.3 and I seem to remember using the escape character to set the environment variables. -- Karl Buck KSU Dept. of Mathematics email: kxb@hilbert.math.ksu.edu Manhattan, Kansas 66506 voice: (913)532-6750
