I have a feeling that this one may end up going into Frequently Asked
Questions. 

There are two programs documented profusely in the Turbo-C++ documentation
(and README files) which were not included in the distribution. They were
TCCNVT, mentioned above, and PRJ2MAK which will take a Turbo-C++ project file
and turn it into a makefile.

When I contacted Borland tech support (both over the phone and via the net)
they said that the programs were not completed in time to distribute with this
version of the software. They said that there may be a maintenance release of
TC++ in the not too distant future and the programs (or their functionality)
should be included in that release. Additionally, Borland may decide to release
PRJ2MAK on their CompuServe forum prior to the next release.
