Is there a way so I can specify the size of an integer in DJGPP.  In MSDN
help, it says that MSVC++ 5.0 has the following integer sizes:

1 byte: –128 to 127
2 byte: –32,768 to 32,767
4 byte: –2,147,483,648 to 2,147,483,647
8 byte: –9,223,372,036,854,775,808 to 9,223,372,036,854,775,807

I am doing a program that calculates prime numbers, so the bigger the
better.  Is there any way I can get a 4 or 8 byte integer in DJGPP?

Thanks,
Mike
