I've never had any problems running a DJGPP-compiled program, or the 
compiler itself, under Windows. On the other hand, much to my dismay, I 
can't run TeXInfo under either DesqView or Windows. TexInfo has a very 
annoying habit of locking up the entire system after scrolling through 
the first screen of the help directory. Is that specific to my system?
