[Dev-C++] rm.exe; installing from devc++exe and mingw-2.0.0-3.exe

For some reasons I don't know (I suppose they've just forgot it) rm.exe is=

not provided by MinGW-2.0.0-3.exe, so you should include it in your=20

In "C++ includes" remove <DEV-CPP DIR>\INCLUDE\G++3 and add <DEV-CPP=20

(note that these path may vary with different versions)

Apropos: why are you still running with gcc-2.95 in your main distro?

Hello CRV§ADER!

I  have a few things differently set, and it also works. Also I have a
few questions, if you can, please answer them.

rm.exe  is  provided with MSys (Minimal system). It is a collection of
tools  that  are  available  on  Unix systems, ported to windows. They
include  rm.exe among other useful things (it also includes the normal
make.exe).  It  can  be  downloaded from http://www.mingw.org It's bin
directory is added to my PATH and DevCpp uses rm.exe from there.

I have it separately installed, and it also works.

CK> In "binaries" add <DEV-CPP DIR>\BIN
*Please help me here. If the \BIN directory is already in the PATH, it
wouldn't  need to be set, but DevCpp complains about it. How can I NOT
set it?

CK> In "C++ includes" remove <DEV-CPP DIR>\INCLUDE\G++3 and add <DEV-CPP 
DIR>>\INCLUDE\C++\3.2
*Please  help  here  _too_.  Is it possible not to set any of these???
Because when I don't set them I get an error, that I explained quite a
few  days ago (Subject: includes and libraries), but still haven't got
any  answer.  I  don't  need  any includes globally, GCC automatically
finds them anyway.

Please answer if you have the time. I would be VERY greatful.
