4.3.4 How do I install the compiler?

If you don't have DJGPP installed on your harddisk, create a directory for GNU Pascal (`c:\gpc'), and unzip the archives. Make sure you preserve the directory structure (use `pkunzip -d'). Now, add the directory where `gpc.exe' lives (`c:\gpc\bin') to your path and set the DJGPP environment variable to point to your `djgpp.env' file:

 
set DJGPP=c:\gpc\djgpp.env

Then, add this to your `djgpp.env' file:

 
---------------------------------------------------------
[gpcpp]
C_INCLUDE_PATH=%/>;C_INCLUDE_PATH%%DJDIR%/lang/pascal;%DJDIR%/include

[gpc] COMPILER_PATH=%/>;COMPILER_PATH%%DJDIR%/bin LIBRARY_PATH=%/>;LIBRARY_PATH%%DJDIR%/lib;%DJDIR%/contrib/grx20/lib ---------------------------------------------------------

The binary distribution should come with a `djgpp.env' which is already modified, so you may not have to do this.

The GPC online documentation is in GNU info format; you need the Info reader (`txi390b.zip') to read it, or use the built-in Info reader of the RHIDE or PENG IDE. To add the GPC documentation to the info directory file, edit the `c:\gpc\info\dir' file, and locate this section:

 
---------------------------------------------------------
* GCC: (gcc.inf).
The GNU C, C++, and Objective-C Compiler

* GDB: (gdb.inf). The GNU Debugger (gdb and gdb-dpmi).

---------------------------------------------------------

To add GPC, change it to look like this:

 
---------------------------------------------------------
* GCC: (gcc.inf).
The GNU C, C++, and Objective-C Compiler

* GPC: (gpc.inf). The GNU Pascal Compiler

* GDB: (gdb.inf). The GNU Debugger (gdb and gdb-dpmi).

---------------------------------------------------------

Specific information for low-memory conditions and more can be found in the DJGPP FAQ and documentation.
