last year i had a wee play with rsxntdj which let you compile win32 api
source code.  it actually created smaller executables than the microsoft
compiler that compiled the example programs in the book i was using

and then I got rid of djgpp and started programming in java.

now I have to write some more windows apps and i'm starting to reach for
djgpp and I wonder if it can be used with the new microsoft platform sdk?

anyone able to help me here?  please email and post thanks
