hello, I am Sorry to bother you with this probable trivial problem, but I can't =get any further here. I installed the file gpc-19990118-egcs-1_1_1_i386-pc-mingw32.zip, wich =rather looks like the one I need for Mingw32 - egcs. And guess what? It doesn't work:
C:\egcs\lib\gcc-lib\i386-mingw32\egcs-2.91.60\units>gpc dos.pas GPC.EXE: installation problem, cannot exec `gpc-cpp': No such file or =directory

I also tried other pascal programs, they don't work either. It looks =like I have to modify some settings of the egcs compiler. But where? And =how? Nothing like that showed up in neither the docs nor the FAQs.
please help me.

You will need to add the 'bin' directory to your path, and you might need to set some environment variables (actually, the environment variables should not be necessary - but you could try them anyway). See the examples below, and amend to suit your directory structure
REM GCC_EXEC_PREFIX is optional, but having it here doesn't hurt. PATH=C:\gpc\mingw32\bin;%PATH% SET GCC_EXEC_PREFIX=C:\gpc\mingw32\lib\gcc-lib\ set LIBRARY_PATH=C:\gpc\mingw32\i386- mingw32\lib;C:\gpc\mingw32\lib;C:\gpc\mingw32\lib\gcc-lib\i386- mingw32\egcs-2.91.60
