Hello, DJGPP gurus!

  I've finally got the full distribution of DJGPP, installed it, and, as usual,
some questions have arisen.
  About info.exe: it seems to work, shows some topics, but when I press 'h' to
start tutorial (I REALLY love tutorials ;), it shows me the message at the
bottom of my screen about ENOENT. What file does it miss?
  Second question: Is there any kind of Language Reference in the package? For
example, I want to know if I can tell the compiler to pass values to functions
in specified registers, like I did in WATCOM: #pragma aux MyFunc parm [eax]...
  Third: is there any way to link programs on DJGPP with .obj files, created,
for example, by TASM?
  Fourth: where to search for djgpp.env file format explanation? I think I
should change it to add some options for compiler so I don't have to type them
every now and then.
  And, finally: don't you think that 104 Kb for "Hello, world" program, even
with debug information, is too much? ;) WATCOM C gives me 31 Kb in the same
conditions (of course, not counting dos4gw.exe ;).
  Please answer to serenkov AT gsu DOT unibel DOT by.
  Thanks in advance!

Goodbye!
