Problem with C++ compiler.

[Escher]

Greetz.

I'm trying to install this GNU C++ compiler on a computer, running Windows 2000 Pro. But I haven't done that because I haven't located the autoexec.bat file on my pc. I've searched for it, but I can't seem to find it.

Here are the instructions from the readme file on the CD.

=============================

1. Grab the DJGPP folder and drop it in your C: drive. This should result in
a new folder C:\DJGPP.

2a. If your computer is not executing WindowsME, then edit your AUTOEXEC.BAT
file. You can do this by opening the NOTEPAD editor and clicking onn
File|Open and selecting c:\AUTOEXEC.BAT.

3a. Add the following two lines to your AUTOEXEC.BAT file. (Note: If the
file AUTOEXEC.BAT does not exist, then steps 2 and 3 will create it. This is
OK.)

set PATH=%PATH%;C:\DJGPP\BIN

set DJGPP=C:\DJGPP\DJGPP.ENV

4a. Save the file and reboot.

Use the following steps to set up your computer if you are using the
WindowsME operating system.

============================

I've copied the DJGPP folder and all.

Any help would be appreciated.

I have attached the Readme file for anybody who wants to look deeper.

right click on my computer, select properties, then click on the advanced tab, then click on environment variables...
you can set the environment variables (i.e. things like PATH there for either current user or system*) if you set it for system, be sure not to remove the current settings, just add to them.
;C:\DJGPP\BIN;
and create a new one for the other setting

Kinda like the windows me instructions that they give...
