** IMPORTANT **

- The compiler will not open files which are in directories exceeding 8 letters or of a file which is not in the 8.3 DOS format (ex: c:\program files\ is a bad named directory for the compiler).

- If you move or rename any Dev-C++ file or directory, also change the compiler directory names in Options menu | Compiler options or it will not found the compiler and librairies.

- If when you compile a file you get a message saying "No space in environment" or similar, add this line to your CONFIG.SYS (usually located in c:\ ):

SHELL=C:\PATH\COMMAND.COM /E:4096 / P

Change PATH by your directory that contains the file COMMAND.COM

You will then need to restart your computer.
