I tried to get stsrted with Open Watcom 1.9 yesterday, and I got stuck on
trying to create a makefile. I have never done makefiles before, and finding
resources on it has been a challenge. Have Open Watcom come with an IDE that
only works in Windows doesn't help.

Oddly enough, I found Open Watcom easier to set up than DJGPP. I might continue
down that route if I cannot get Free PASCAL working...
