I just downloaded ttf2pcx, so I could convert true type fonts to
pcx files suitable for allegro.  Much to my dismay, I found that
it is a win 95 program.  I don't have win 95 :-(

This question is mostly directed at Shawn, but feel free to answer
anyway.  

What is involved in porting the program to dos using DJGPP?  
I'm hoping that most of the implementation code was kept 
seperate from the windows code.  I looked at the code but I 
can't really make heads or tails of it.  I've never done any 
windows programming, so it was greek to me.  

One more question.  Does win 95 use essentially the same API
as win 3.1?  If it does, it may be easier for me to port the program
to win 3.1 using TC++ 3.? for windows.  (This is my schools compiler,
not mine).  

TIA as always.
