This is one of the better books around actually... :)

It is, but to implement a lot of the more advanced stuff, such as the
simple multi-tasking chapter, you will have to do a lot of reading of
the __dpmi_int stuff with DJGPP...

Ummm...read the readme.1st file that is at the same place you get
DJGPP...

There is actually. I think its called djhelp.zip of something similar,
but it has the help files (including libc which is cool) in html and
win help format. Where to get it? Can't remember... :(
