It does not support virtual memory. You can get it at a simtel mirror in the djgpp distribution section (v2misc I think). To use it, you first build your program like normal and then remove the standard stub with exe2coff and append the pmodedj stub like this: copy /b pmodestub.exe+programname outname.exe the /b switch is important and so is the ordering of the filenames. I don't remember the exact name of the stub exe but it's something like that. Just replace the filenames I used above with the actual names used. Just remember that the pmode stub can provide dpmi services only if no other dpmi server is loaded (just like cwsdpmi) so if your program runs in a windows dos box, dpmi will be provided by windows.
