I would like to know if it is possible from a DJGPP program to detect 
(and how) important features of the running system, like these:

1. DPMI services (perhaps impossible from inside DJGPP?)
2. LFN support (I'm aware of _use_lfn. Any more?)
3. Can run Win32 executables - or which OS is it
4. Internet connection available

If not, are there ready to use, simple utilities to do that, that could 
interoperate with DJGPP programs?

In any case, sample code would be very welcome.

TIA,
