make programs are likely to have problems with the Makefile. If you |

provides use of long filenames under Windows 95, you should unpack the |

gforth package with a Windows-95-aware archiver (those from DJGPP come |
| |
in mind), because otherwise gforth will not find the necessary |

files. There is no such problem when using MS-DOS prior 7.x. |
