Subject: Gnu C under Windows?: Win32; an icon

> From: dj AT delorie DOT mv DOT com (DJ Delorie)

> Windows 3.1 will run Win32 programs if you install the Win32 driver.

  (1) For many people's convenience, it would very useful if the Win32 driver
could also be on the same Simtel directory as the djgpp *.zip files.
  (2) If the djgpp (Gnu/etc) compiler was compiled by djgpp, will it run under
Windows? If so, it will need some sort of way it can be told to interrogate
the user for all its call options, rather than him having to input them all as
call line arguments (which he can't do under Windows easily.)
  (3) As I sent in a while ago, here is a uuencoded form of a Windows icon
file showing the head and shoulders of a gnu (African animal), that I made, if
anying wants to use it as his Windows icon to call djgpp:-
