1. Please reply also sdirectly to taupin AT lps DOT u-psud DOT fr (no more on the
djgpp list because of overcrowded mailboxes).

2. I got a terrible crash when invoking microemacs compiled with djgpp
under the DOS window of windows 3.11: the result was a complete disk crash
(my disk D: was unknown by DOS although found by BIOS).

 2.a Did somebody experience crashes when running any djgpp program (with
GO32 included) inside the DOS window of Windows ?

 2.b I suspect this was due to a memory overlapping between windows memory
management and GO32 memory requests. Am I right ? Subsidiary question:
has windows 3.11 a memory protection preventing the DOS window writing
outside its std allocated area ?
