To write Windows applications with djgpp tools you'll need the 
RSXNTDJ extension package.  It's `rsxdj---b.zip' in the `v2tk' 
directory of the distribution, IIRC; replace `---' with the 
latest version number.  I have version 131 but I think version 
141 is out now.

There are several sample programs for RSXNTDJ.

No idea; presumably yes, but beware that RSXNTDJ doesn't have a 
C++ library so you can't use STL things.  AFAIK.  I don't use 
C++ at all myself (nor RSXNTDJ much any more).

BTW, I've received four posts from you about this problem -- 
you only need to post once.
