to be honest, I think you should use LCC. Don't get me wrong, I love
DJGPP, but it is a DOS compiler. You should use LCC cause:
-it's a lot smaller! it's like 2 or 3 megs in a zip file, compared to
about ten or so (DJGPP+RSX)
-even if DJGPP is free, there are some legal issues with RSX, which
don't exist with LCC
-I think LCC was designed especially for win32 developement, so it would
just be better.
Whatever. this is just my opinion.
