CC386 for DOS/DPMI v3.72

First run the setup program. Answer the questions about where to install to and whether to automatically modify the autoexec.bat file. If you choose not to modify the autoexec.bat file, a file lsetenv.bat will be create which indicates the changes needed to configure the compiler. If you do decide to have the install modify the autoexec.bat, it will scan your root directory for a configuration file in either the normal MSDSOS, FREEDOS, or DRDOS name format. If a SHELL= line is specified in the variant of config.sys which is discovered, that startup file specified by the /P: parameter will be used if specified. Otherwise, if an autoexec variant is found, that will be modified. If no autoexec.bat variant is found, one will be created. After the install you may have to reboot to make environment settings take effect. Once you have the program installed, type: cl386 <file names> to build a program using NASM and VAL. You may specify various switches with CL386 to choose different assemblers/linkers and a variety of other options. You may want to modify the CL386 .CFG file in the bin directory to reflect your changes. Also see the MK386 utility as an alternate for building programs. BTW, if you use the -v option on CL386 it will link a debug-like debugger into your code.
