Some news here:

http://www.ualberta.ca/~jsims/disp.exe

is said to be display v1.90 beta 5

I have just unpacked it and surprisingly it is a djgpp v2.x program.

I have no idea who compiled it and from which sources.
Docs seem to be the same as v1.89 (which was a djgpp v1.x program).

I'll test it tonight.

Tony
