Hello!

To begin with, I'm fairly new to DJGPP, and to C too for that matter.
I run it through RHIDE under DOS/Win95. To put it short: I wonder if
there is a way to make use of integers of unlimited size, whith some
includes(?) or the like? This, for example, I would like to be able to
do:

unliminteger x, y,z;
x=123456789123456789123456789123456789;
y=546124567891234567811214564;
z=x + y;  /* The same for -,*,/,% and bitwise logical &,| etc. */
printf("%X",z);
etc. (I think you got the point...)

After som search on the web I found a package kalled NTL at
www.shoup.net which looked like if it could stand up to my criteria. I
couldn't find out how to get it to work in DJGPP though...  (As I
said, I'm new to this...) Anyone have any experience of this and knows
if it should work and then how it should be set up?

Any other package you could recommend that fits my needs?

Thanks in advance,
Johan Winge.
