All you need to know about the syntax is, that everything after a #
is ignored, and you are not supposed to change the caps words like 
PDPATH or BCCPATH. *But* you are supposed to change the things after
the equal sign =. An example:

The standard file contains this line: 

BCCPATH=c:\programme\prog\bcc55

This specifies, where the Borland C compiler is installed. The
location in the file probably is the one, Thomas is using: 
c:\programme\prog\bcc55

But if you installed BCC to another directory, you need to name it
here. So if your BCC is in "c:\Program Files\bcc", just change that
line and mark it with "" if it contains spaces: 

BCCPATH="c:\Program Files\bcc"

"And that, as they say, is that."
