It's a platform on which making games is very easy. Don't tell DJ you said that. "Game Programming Platform" takes such a limited view of what DJGPP is capable of. The actual acronym is DJ's GNU Programming Platform (see http://www.delorie.com/djgpp/history.html for explanation). For an explanation of what GNU stands for, see http://www.fsf.org/. -- --------------------------------------------------------------------- | John M.
