"DJGPP - A free 32-bit development system for DOS"

"DJGPP is a complete 32-bit C/C++ development system for Intel 80386
(and higher) PCs running DOS."


Below are the file lists I got from the zip picker page for
MS-DOS. They are filled with illegal file names, to wit:

bin/addr2line.exe
info/binutils.info
info/gasp.info
info/gprof.info
bin/unprotoize.exe
lang/cxx/algorithm
lang/cxx/builtinbuf
lang/cxx/indstream
lang/cxx/stlhashmap

etc, etc...
