I have used it as a first try to write a DLL.
It does work for Cygwin apps  using Cygwin DLLs,

--- many thanks for the instructions. ---

What else is needed the same easy way to link a Cygwin app against a Microsoft,
e.g. VC or Borland created DLL, without having a .def or import library.
Doing more with LINUX every time its difficult to understand why there are so
much differences and difficulties.
