The -mno-cygwin flag to gcc makes gcc link against standard Microsoft DLLs instead of Cygwin. This is desirable for native Windows programs that don't need a UNIX emulation layer. http://www.cygwin.com/faq/faq.html#SEC82 But as my programs are design to run under DOS, I think that it's not possible with Cygwin and that I should use DJGPP. Does it sound right ??? Thanks Jean-Luc -- Want to unsubscribe from this list? Check out: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
