Hi DJGPP users!

OK, I've just looked through the FAQ and can't find anything to help me. 
I know it's probably in INFO, but I can't seem to find it.

I'm looking for information on how to set up a C procedure in an .S file, 
how to get parameters off the stack, how to return a value, how to export 
it so C files can call it, all that sort of assembly stuff.

I've NEVER used an assembler to link to C before (I pretty much always 
use inline assembly, but with DJGPP it makes your code look kinda messy 
with all the "clobbered" registers, etc. I'm not having a go at the 
technique: it is better than any other inline assembly I've ever seen in 
a C compiler, it just messes up my prettily formatted code for biggish 
functions).

If it IS in INFO, can somebody please point me in the right direction??

Thanks

Brett Porter
