Can anyone tell me where can I get information on the various error codes that DJGPP spits out ? I'm new to DJGPP and every time there's an error message or a warning during build , I can't seem to understand it. I had been trying to fix up things by trial and error and I don't seem to be doing a good job at it. And how do I find out the meaning to words like SIGABRT or SIGSEGV ? And what's all the stuff I get when the program crashes ? It looks like they are the values in the different registers . How can I know what does that mean so that I can debug ?? Lastly , is it possible to have a pointer to a real mode function in DJGPP ? (Like a pointer to VESA 1.2's bank swicthing function ?) How do I get a pointer to it ? Thanks in advance !
