Hi,

1. I need more information about C & assembly interface in DJGPP.
I see in library source code that you save ESI, EDI and EBX
registers in assembly modules.
Is it enough to write a safe assembly routine ?
What are the default processor registers of C register variables in DJGPP ?
And what about '-mreg-alloc=REG' option of GCC ?

2. At this time the INSTALL.DAT file is incorrect in SimTel DJGPP
distribution. It's not too big problem of course but it's a little
pain for a new user.

3. DJGPP v2.0 will be ANSI- and POSIX-compliant. It would be a good
thing if it would be "DOS C-compliant" too. It means that DJGPP
ought to support function and type names (in DOS.H, DIR.H) which are
the common part of DOS C compilers (Borland, Microsoft, Watcom, Symantec).
In fact, mostly these are the identifiers of Microsoft C compiler.
Please support DOS C compiler indepedent programming under DOS.
