With all due respect, I disagree. I don't see any reason why DJGPP
couldn't be a tool to learn programming at least as good as Turbo C. If
you see any trouble with the docs or other tools, or the necessary setup,
that would prevent people from using DJGPP as such a tool, please tell.
Personally, I don't know about anything in Turbo/Visual C that makes them
a better learning tool. Are they better documented? Are they better
supported? Do you get your questions answered faster and better by their
support staff?
