Is there a good way of adding plugins to djgpp programs....

lets say i have a program that draws random circles on the screen,
or random rectangles.The user can select from a list what
kind of thing to draw,circles or rectangles.But i want to
add new things in the future,like say triangles or heart
shapes,but i dont want to make the users download the WHOLE 
darn package,just a plug-in for the new shapes....Is this 
possible?Can i do something like this with DXE?...

Is there a way to compile a little bit of code for a
drawing function and load it in memory and call it
from my program in a way that it could access global
varibles or other functions from my main program...

I dont have ANY experience with this type of thing,is
it possible or am i just out of luck unless i want
to switch to windows programming?

Thanks,
 Krogg
