More often than not the compilers I prefer to use are the variuos ports
of gcc, so naurally when programming for DOS I use djgpp, but my
lecturer(he teaches C programming in my Electronics course) tells me
that djgpp can seriously affect the health of you're computer and it is
has many a bug within it. Is this true? furthermore, my DOS computer
does seem to have alotta bugs init especially when running
Win95(extremely frequent crashes, frequency lowered when keyboard
instead of mouse used) Up till now I thought of these bugs as part of
Win95 or HW problems. Does anybody know if DJGPP could be the cause of
these problems?


THANX,
