Here's a quick note about DJP :
It functions exactly as PKLite, Diet, etc. so expansion of the EXE is done
automatically at run-time. It is available from the Simtel FTP site and its
mirrors, in the vendors/djgpp/v2.. subtree (I think it's in v2misc).

That should bury this "Size of EXE" thread... (DJP should be mentioned in the
FAQ, I think).

Adios
