Subject: emu 387, standalone programs, and a funny thing

Tadaa the NEWBIE strikes back :)

When I tried to compile some code today, I got the error message:
    Can't open 80387 emulator file c:/djgpp/emu387/emu387..
but c:/djgpp/emu387/emu387 exists and the DISPLAY program works with
no fuzz.
I am using go32 1.10u (the go32 that came with display) and hopefully
the latest stuff from the djgpp subdir, 1.11?
Any hints?

How do I link in go32 into my programs so they are standalone?

And over to the funny thing.
I compiled the split program on a sun SPARC 1+.. By mistake I copied
over the a.out unix file to my msdos computer.
After a while I found a mystic a.out file in a subdir.. ahhh I thought
lets see what this little beauty can do... typed go32 a.out
go32 didn't like the file so I ran aout2exe and tried go32 a.exe this
one worked and printed the help text!!!!!!! :))
I didn't try other stuff on it but... :)
