Subject: 64k demo

Two guys made a demo only 64k with real time generated animation.
Most of 64k demos were made in assembly only.
I saw, they used __asm__(" ... "); a lot.

I think, it is not a good idea to make 64k demo in DJGPP
Because: the CWSDPMI takes 25Kb
         and djgpp produces too big exes for this. (sizeof "hello world"
too big)

How did they do that ?
What linker did they use ?
I think, they have got their own smaller extender.
They were beginner in PC.(they came from Amiga)

What is the way to use DJGPP in a 64k intro ?

I only can use WATCOM for this by using the extender called PMODE BY
TRAN
without default libs.(and some small asm lib)
