Saw a post on a Linux group recently - said that M$ was working on dropping
DOS support entirely in a new windows post 2000 - don't know how true it
was, but it makes be think of the line
"If we can't sue 'em out, we'll DOS 'em out!!"
(screamed by Bill Gates as he chews the carpet and foams at the mouth)
Seriously....
what do you guys see as the future for DJGPP? I am trying to branch into
Linux coding as it seems the guys with the shovels are on the way for DOS?
Not that I don't like DOS coding, its great, all my work has been done
under DJGPP so far (which, admittedly, is not much!) , but what do you think
will happen?
Fanx!
