Getting all the (huge!) sources and dependencies is the most worrisome part to me. Not that most people care anyways, it's just tedious (especially since these will only cross-build). The README.1ST or Zip Picker should give you some idea. * ftp://ftp.delorie.com/pub/djgpp/current/v2/readme.1st * http://www.delorie.com/djgpp/zip-picker.html Long story short, you don't need much beyond DJDEV*, BNU*, GCC* (and probably MAK*) for bare minimum. Add GPP* for C++. (Maybe add a third-party lib like PDCurses or FSU Pthreads or Allegro or Zlib, if you really want.) Everything else is optional. Bison and Flex aren't needed by 90% of things or people. Even GDB is technically optional (although RHIDE/RHGDB is obsolete and too old to be much use anymore). TexInfo is just for documentation, and while somewhat useful, you can do without (since it's just plain text with hints for navigation) or use (huge!) GNU Emacs. _______________________________________________ Freedos-devel mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/freedos-devel
