  I'm just starting to use DJGPP, and would like to see what's
available in the library.  I've downloaded the documentation of the
stuff I have in HTML format, so I can use a browser to scan through it.
Unfortunately, it seems the DJGPP libc reference is only available in
info format.

  Info frustrates me, I hate it and I dont want to use it.

  Is the libc reference available in HTML somewhere for downloading? (I
have found an online reference, but here in Europe we pay per minute for
phone connections, and I'd rather have the docs on my HD).

  While I'm here - I'm thinking of an application where I have to use
the DOS interrupts 0x25 and 0x26.  These read and write harddisk
sectors.  As far as I could tell, they are not directly supported.  What
should I do to call these interrupts?  Note that a complicating factor
here is that both leave a word (16 bit) on stack upon return.

  TIA,
  Gertjan.
