Subject: Some questions...

Over the past few weeks, I have been working on a few small
programs that might be worth 'donating' to the DJGPP archives.
I have two questions, however.

Does it make any difference if I upload things as normal or self-
extracting .zips?

Should I include the sources?

The other question I would like to ask is not strictly DJGPP related,
but what the heck.  I would like to incorporate some color in the mud
I am working on, but I don't want it to have to ask the users if they have
ANSI capability each time they log on.  I know that there is a way to
autodetect an ANSI or VT-100 terminal, but I don't know how to do it.
Can anybody shed some light on the situation?

Thanks much!

John
