Hello all,

We are a medium sise hardware/software manufacturer of post-production
video-equipment. We manufacture a PC based code reader for the cinema
industry.
We are very familliar with Borland and MS C++ compilers, and want to
move into 32 bit protected mode.
We decided to go DJGPP because we need a DOS real-time compiler. 

Problem:
At this time I am translating our 16Bit softwares into 32Bit with DJGPP.
How can I solve the everyday (10 times a day) problems I encounter.

For example: trying to run the debugger for the first time, 
I got the message: 
<<  program received signal SIGFPE, 
arithmetic exception 0x3c33e in _strhold()  >> 

problem #2: one of my interruption handler has to handle IT from six
separate sources, and needs reentrance capabilities. (most of the
handler code is under_enable() ).
It seems that, using go32_dpmi_set_protected_mode_interrupt_vector,
reetrance is not allowed... Is there a solution?

How can I get an answer to these problems in less than two minutes ?
Reading the FAQs will eventually give me a solution but it will take me
hours to dig into the FAQ pile.

Is there somewhere an indexed documentation or a structured FAQ
compilation?

TIA,

Alain Bellet/Aaton
