Any general issues that I should know trying to port POSIX and other
*nix apps to DOS with DJGPP? (Other than the fact that all the calls
in unistd return amusing, prefabricated values ^^; ) This is a matter
of some interest to me, mostly to give me something to do, but also
because there are some apps I'd like to use under DOS, and porting
them would be good experience for me.

Secondly, I'm trying to work with someone else's code that seems to have
not been touched for a couple years. Out of curiosity to see how much
work this would entail, I changed a few things in the make file so GNU
make would like it and got easily 70 compile-time errors. I tried
capturing this to a file but it failed. I tried running cc1 and
redirecting ITS output but that also resulted in a "size-zero" file.
Also, piping it into more did not work. Now, I can't read every one of
over 70 error messages as it flashes by on my screen like that. So,
I was wondering if I have to do something "special" to get this
output. Any help would be *greatly* appreciated :)
