To run programs under DOS, yes, but we provide one. If you intend to
run the program on some other platform, it's up to you to provide
startup and runtime routines for that platform.

DJGPP comes with a free DPMI driver called CWSDPMI (csdpmi1b.zip) for
people who do not have one. Note that Windows already has a DPMI
driver in it.
