You need to use the `ar' program.  To build a library, you invoke `ar' 
with a command line like this:

	ar rvs mylib.a file1.o file2.o file3.o

This creates a library named `mylib.a' and puts the named *.o object 
files into it.

For more details, read the `ar' docs which come with DJGPP by typing this 
from the DOS prompt:

	info binutils ar
