Does this cover Win32 and Win32s? This is the info that you really need 
to create a windows library for djgpp. Oh, I just found out the other day 
that the PE format (used by Win32) is actually based on the COFF format, 
so it souldn't be too hard to convert a COFF to a PE for windows.
If anyone has full information on the PE format (basicly the header 
info), the COFF format can be easily found (I think) and a converter 
written.
