  Sorry experts, I didn't want to upset people because of my relative simple
  programming applications. No, I don't bother with LANs (as someone pointed 
  out) nor DLL's - so any restrictions on that in rsxntdj I have not come
  across. Still I think it's pretty neat software and could serve as starting 
  point for those who want much more out of it. PS I thought that as rsxntdj 
  was specifically meant for djgpp, more people (experts?) would/could have 
  been aware of it. Anyway, now at least everyone is!

  Cheers,
