Thanx to everyone who replied to this... I've managed to get the 
thing working, under v1.11m4 - works great so far {=^)

Anyways, I've a few more questions about it (I hope a port from 
another compiler to get DJGPP working under Windoze is still on-topic 
for this mailing list =)

Will it work under v2b4 ?  If so, what do I need to do ?

Are there any problems with v1.11m4 under windows ?  I mean, hasn't a lot of 
work been done on the wrapper-code (cwsdmpi, crt0, etc.) since 
then ?

What files do I need to distribute with the windows exe's ?  Do I 
still need go32 at all ?

I don't have RC.exe, so does anyone know if there are any PD resource 
compilers or another way to change the built-in Icon ?

What about creating help files ?  Are there any PD programs for 
creating them which don't rely on MS/Borland tools to make the final 
help file ?

Also, is there any way to change the message that is printed when the 
exes are run under DOS (the one that says "this is a 16-bit windows 
program" or something) ?  I'd like something a bit more 
user-friendly - like "This program must be run from within 
MS-Windows - please see the documentation for more details").

Oh, and the programs are actually 32-bit code in a 16-bit wrapper, 
aren't they ?  Does this mean they need Win32s/NT/<whatever =)>, or 
does RSXWDK contain it's own implementation of Win32s - I guess 
that's what all the new libs are ?

Oh, and there's no math lib - do I just use all the original libs 
when there's no replacement lib ?

And finally... (probably should have been first) - is there a FAQ for 
RSXWDK ?

-------
end of questions =)

I asked about sources of Windows API docs in my original mailing - 
just in case anyone's interested - there's a pretty neat FAQ at:

Thanx again, everyone...

Lee.
