DFL?

[Ronny]

Hi,


I am trying to get DFL to work and failing.  Details follow:

First, I downloaded the latest snapshot (dfl-20110523.exe 
installer).

Next, I Installed in my DMD folder (c:\d\dmd2)

Then, I created a project as per the tutorial 
(http://www.dprogramming.com/dfl/welcome.php)

Then I tried to build it (dfl -debug welcome.d -gui) [note: the 
options were changed as per the errata]

When I did this, I got the following:
	DFL lib files not found.
	Would you like to build the DFL lib files now? [Y/n]

I answered Y and got the following:
Compiling debug DFL...

Failed.

Done.

Press any key to continue . . .


I then replaced typedef with alias references to fix the messages 
above and retried the compilation.  I got:

This is when I realized I should stop heading down the rabbit 
hole and ask here.

Help!
