Hi!

I'm preparing a C course, and am trying to get the stuff in the text
to be as portable as possible, since the students have several compilers
available.

(1) I'm trying to compile a program out of a book that uses "getch".
    This should be in conio, which in djgpp just includes gppconio.
    The program compiles but the linker reports that getch is undefined.
    What is the magic to get the linker to find it?

(2) Just for curiosity, where is getch, etc., in standard (Unix) gcc?
    The linker can't find it there either.

(3) What editor do most of you use with djgpp? EMACS? If so, where are
    the DOS binaries? I could not find it in the usual place at WUSTL.

(4) Does gppconio read all the PC keystrokes (alt-keys, etc.)?

Thanks!

Mike Feldman
