This is DMAKE version 4.1 compiled for Win32 using Borland C 5.02. For information on how to use DMAKE, see DMAKE.TXT. DMAKE needs a set of startup files that are located in a subdirectory called `startup' where DMAKE.EXE lives. So, to install it, just copy DMAKE.EXE and the startup subdirectory to some location on your path. You can change the default platform in the startup\config.mk file (the defaults are set up for Borland C++, v5.x). If you change the defaults, you'll need to make sure the subdirectories you name in startup\config.mk are populated with setup files (you can use the current hierarchy as a model). The default startup configuration can also be overridden by setting `OSRELEASE' and `OSENVIRONMENT' in your environment (see the notes under `readme'). Note that the startup files don't read the `OS' environment variable, despite what the notes in the `readme' directory say. In other words, you can only set `OS' from the startup\config.mk file. You can get the sources for dmake 4.1(patchlevel 1) from http://dmake.wticorp.com/. The file dmake-4.1pl1-win32.patch contains notes on the changes I had to make to get it to build. Enjoy!
