PLEASE help! Thanks in advance:-) > I forgot to mention that, when I talk about the speed of DJGPP I am refering to the speed of the exe's it produces. I'm not to worried about compilation speed, cause my progs are usually pretty small. I have another question though: What are the advantages (if any) of protected mode code? Also, would DJGPP be more suitable for game programming than TC++ 3.0? Again, thanks in advance:-) Jordan Ellis
