Why does this compile properly and when I uncomment the "using namespace std;", it doesn't.  This seems wierd and nunsettling to me. LMAO

#include <iostream.h>
//using namespace std;  //Unbelievable DM's SGISTL33 isn't in the
namespace standard!
int main(int argc, char* argv[])
{
	cout << "Hello world!\n";
	return 0;
}

The header files named xxx.h are old and don't use namespace. They
should only be used for old code.
Use the header <iostrem> instead. Include the stlport path somewhere so
that the compiler will find the header. The command line to compile the
file would be
  dmc  -Ic:\dm\stlport\stlport  example.cpp
