   I picked up a copy of DJGPP, a public domain C++ compiler for

Sigh.  I'm sure you mean well, but DJGPP is not public domain.  It *is*
freely copyable, a term that applies to both public domain software,
and copyrighted software that may be freely copied.

   Any help, or ftpsites, etc. where I could get the docs would be
   greatly appreaciated.

The canonical place to get djgpp is from
grape.ecs.clarkson.edu:pub/msdos/djgpp.
