From a newby to DJGPP

1.) From first running gcc on WinNT, it seems that it is a 16-bit app. Apart
from other inconveniences, this makes long command lines difficult. Is there
a 32-bit distribution of gcc.exe for Win32 ?

2.) How difficult is it to compile gcc to a 32-bit app and then compile
32-bit apps?
Is it worth doing.

Thanks in advance, with respect to all
