I'm trying to build some custom software for my CCD Astronomy camera.  The 
mfg. provides a header file (.h) and a library file (.lib) for persons 
wanting to write the software in DOS.  They then provide several .dll for Win 
32 programming using MSVC or VB. I have already written some of the software 
in MSVC 6.0 but I have always preferred using DJGPP.  Do you need more 
details?  I don't see were it is possible.  Still any luck?
