DJGPP includes STL as part of the C++ compiler (v2gnu/gpp281b.zip file from the usual DJGPP sites). > 3) I read about djgpp, and it's apparently for DOS.

There is an add-on package called RSXNTDJ that can be used with DJGPP to produce Win32 programs. The DJGPP FAQ also includes pointers to 3 other free compilers that produce native Win32 programs. > I know I'd find all the answers to my questions if I downloaded the > compiler and started playing with it, but I don't want to waste my > Internet time if I don't need to. You could have downloaded the FAQ (v2/faq211b.zip) and then you'd know the answers to all these questions.
