I have just installed GPC 2.0 (is there a newer one than this 12/96 version?), and I'm having a problem running configure/make.
When I configure (I had to remake my gcc-2.7.2.2) i get a version error that GPC 2.0 requires gcc-2.7.2.1, which I have 2.7.2.2! It's frustating since that is a newer version, and I'm excited about possibly using GPC with the borland extensions since I'm a borland pascal person! :)
BTW, in code, how does one access the environment variables? Also, how do you reference items that were part of the borland units (DOS, SYSTEM, etc)?

Unfortunately I can't help you there other than telling you that GPC only compiles on platfroms like Unix and Linux :( Reason it doesn't compile on '95 (or NT?) is because of the way it handles long file names (which in some cases, it doens't). I'm sure if DJGPP was compiled with the LFN flag set it may compile under '95, but I haven't tried it yet so for now I'm just theorizing.

This one I don't know, but if GPC doesn't have a function to do so, you can "borrow" it from DJGPP's libraries.

Look for the BPCompat units, it has a wealth of code for compatability.
