When I started using RSXNTDJ, MingW32 was a somewhat awkward patch on
the main Cygwin distro, so I learned to live with RSX, got working
patches for the current SDK to work, repaired the specs file, put all
the stuff on my site, and answered questions, much as you are now doing.
Under Mumit Khan's guidance, MingW32 has really developed into a nice
tool for Windows programming. Given that, I personally see no reason to
duplicate the effort, and have removed the RSXNTDJ material from my
site, and point people toward MingW32 or Lcc-Win32.
Currently. I use Linux at home and work, and have little time for any
DOS/Windows work. Fixing RSXNTDJ to be a fully usable C/C++ system is a
little more work than is first apparent, but it is your call.
