djgpp where is exe

[duh1]

now that i have made an exe on djgpp where is it and how do i send it to floppy? thanks Duh1

[kerm0dei]

You should find a cemu.exe file in your source directory- if you have extensions turned off in windows, it might appear as just "cemu". You should be able to just right-click on that file and select "send to --> floppy (a:)"

[duh1]

no i just end up with a broderbund php file thanks Duh1

[kerm0dei]

so when you type "make" it appears to compile correctly but you don't find a cemu.exe file in the source directory?

[duh1]

correct, but what folder of the source dir are you talking about been through them all no findy .exe Duh1

[kerm0dei]

normally you'll find it in whatever directory you're in when you type "make"

[duh1]

so that would be an exe that is a bootable floppy in cemusrc. if so cant find it. all files are in cemusrc but not exe. have run the files through win image still cannot get a bootable exe on floppy for dos onley. need help. thanks Duh1

[duh1]

come on guys all i need to know is where is the exe that exist after sucssefully running djgpp? it should write to a bootable floppy for dos use. i can;t find it . help duh1

I know nothing of the program you're using but perhaps I can offer somewhere to look for that elusive .exe file.

This program is running on your hard drive, but when you install a program under Doze, it will put it like 5 layers deep (windows /progs/blah, blah blah).

You have the orginal program to make the file you need on your drive (talking the downloaded one that you didn't unzip), right?

Drop to Dos or a Dos window (XP) and you'll get C:\windows\desktop, whatever. Type in cd/ and hit enter. You now will have C: them type md cemu and hit enter.

You now have a Cemu directory (folder) and type exit and back to Doze. Copy the unzipped cemu file to that directory and then unzip it to that directory.

Compile the file you need and you can also find it by dropping to Dos and going to your Cemu directory. Often programs will make a sub directory and put the file there but at least you know where it is.

You can copy manually or use the Find function of Doze since you tell it to look in C:/cemu

Go back to Dos and cd\cemu and Dir, if another sub directory has been made (let's say it's called info) just type cd\cemu\info and hit enter, do a Dir and your .exe file will be there. Then copy it to your floppy.


Oh, while in Dos type 'verify on' this reads and writes 2X to the floppy to ensure that the copy is perfect. Just do a 'verify off' before exiting back to Doze.

Hope this was of some help.

look for a file that's 326k- that should be your cemu.exe

[duh1]

where?

[duh1]

i mean it says file size 1817600 down to 333252 ratio 18.33% format djgpp2/coff name cemu.exe. what more info should i have? where is it and is it executable,ie boot floppy, seems simple but im stumped . oh and it also says packed 1 file i hate to bother seaboard with this bs but dont know what else to do. thanks Duh1

[kerm0dei]

it's a file that's 326KB in your cemu_src folder where you did the compile (the same file that was packed down to 333252 bytes)... maybe you're not seeing it because you have extensions turned off in windows.

[duh1]

i dont see it. how do you turn on extensions or be sure they are turned on thanks Duh1

[kerm0dei]

depending on your version of windows, it should be (in a windows explorer) under Tools - Folder Options - View .... and if you scroll down under advanced settings, you'll see "hide file extensions for known file types"... you'll want to click that off. I also recommend using the "details" view in windows explorer rather than an "icons" view... alot easier to see what's going on

[duh1]

cant find thedetals view but did find the hidden folders and hide extenstions for hidden file types, unchecked that. i need to go back and check djgpp ill let you know and i cant possibly tell you hoe much i appreciate it. its aways simple if you know what to do thanks again Duh1
