Hi,

I email you becouse I have an extrange problem with dosemu and I don't know
where I can report that:

I have a problem with Watcom C/C++ 11.0 compiler. The following standard code:

#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>

int main ( int ArgC, char **ArgV )
{
   if ( ArgC != 2 )
       printf ( "\nUsage: $main env_var_name\n\n" );
   else
   {
      char *Var;

      if ( ( Var = getenv ( ArgV[1] ) ) != NULL )
         printf ( "'%s' = '%s'\n", ArgV[1], Var );
      else
         printf ( "'%s' = ''\n", ArgV[1] );
   }

   return 0;
}                

Don't get enviroment variables:

C:\TMP>main PATH
DOS/4GW Protected Mode Run-time  Version 1.97
Copyright (c) Rational Systems, Inc. 1990-1994
'PATH' = ''

If I compile the same code with Turbo C/C++ 1.0 it works fine:

C:\TMP>main PATH
'PATH' = 'C:\PROGS\COMP\WATCOM\BINW;C:\PROGS\COMP\CLIPPER;C:\PROGS\COMP\TP7;C:\U
TILS;C:\BAT;c:\bin;c:\gnu;c:\dosemu'

I don't know if it's a bug or if I'm doing something grong.
I notice that environment variables are case sensitive under dosemu but that's
not my problem.
