Newcomer for DJGPP...

  1) does the DJGPP _always_ make a 32-bit exe, or _only_ when certain
compiler directives are in place?
  2) actual DPMI functions _only_ become available when specific
"dmpi-activating" instructions are used ?
  3) I wish to learn more about how DJGPP seems to interface well with
16-bit DOS drivers/TSR's, considering its 32-bit.
  4) How on earth can I reduce the size of a simple djgpp program?!?!
    printf("Hello DJGPP!\n"); consumed 103K for the EXE !! and contained
    tons of debug/stub info!

  I notice some people are designing "Windows 95" applications which
claim to support Long-Filenames, "pixview" being one of them.
  When I run this program in Win95 I still see ~ in the filenames...

I am MOST INTERESTED in books which provide information on the library 
functions (djgpp version of the C/C++ runtime library).

  Thanks for the help!
