Are you trying to compile GPC itself, or do you mean the compiler won't run?

If GPC/win32 gives you an error message like "unable to load cygwin.dll", that means you have not installed cygwin32, which is required.

Read the instructions in: ftp://agnes.dida.physik.uni-essen.de/home/janjaap/cygwin32/

Can't you guys just PLEASE compile the darn thing(with the executable) in MSDOS and put it on a ftp page??

It exists. It's called DJGPP. A v2.0 GPC is part of the standard DJGPP distribution. If you like to live on the edge, we have a replacement GPC for DJGPP which is more recent.
