I think this is not possible under DOS, that is why it was renamed to
gxx ;)  It might be possible (but painful) to achieve under W95/W98.

If you upgrade to gcc 2.95 in DJGPP then the command is gpp, I think
this already exists in UNIX (at least it would be easy to alias) so
maybe you can reprogram your fingers!
