Hi all.  I'm just starting with DJGPP to do a DOS-based program and I have a
few questions:
Whats a good Internet resource for programming DOS programs with DJGPP?  All
I've ever done is Win32 programming (for instance, in Win32 I can call the
FindFirstFile function to do a file search, what would the equivalent be in
DOS?). Also, how do I enable long filename support under DOS?  I'd like to
be able to read long filenames but since DOS doesn't support it I'd be stuck
with the old 8.3 filenames (I'm using Win98 DOS in true DOS mode, not as a
command box inside of Windows)
Thank you
