You can use gdb from inside of RHIDE for DOS and Linux.

See the RSXNTDJ documentation. I don't know the answer.

Yes, you can access the socket from a DOS or WIN32 exe, for the last you need
RSXNTDJ.

Check the Cygnus port of GNU tools to WIN32 enviroment (http://www.cygnus.com
or similar).

Just see some resulting applications like Quake, the Mac Emulator, etc. You can
get an idea from the links in my page, I have links to tons of things made with
djgpp.
