Some of mails at DJGPP workers (not all of them) are http://www.delorie.com/djgpp/mail-archives/browse.cgi?p=djgpp-workers/1998/09/10/18:45:06 http://www.delorie.com/djgpp/mail-archives/browse.cgi?p=djgpp-workers/1998/09/15/09:53:11 http://www.delorie.com/djgpp/mail-archives/browse.cgi?p=djgpp-workers/1998/09/11/13:02:03 Original URL from last of these mails do not respond now and it did no more contain the files when I looked last time long ago as far as I remember. The problem is that that nobody took the work of actually integrating these additions in DJGPP libc then. Good news is that I still have these files laying around http://ap1.pp.fi/djgpp/misc/ I raised this topic before releasing DJGPP v2.05. It was then decided to postpone it. Andris
