 I was having some trouble using a structure to load a file header in DJGPP.
I found that it worked in borland C no problem. So, I wrote a little test
program that would give me the sizes of several data types:

Borland C/C++:

  Variable         Size
  ---------------------
  int              2
  unsigned int     2
  long             4
  ...

But in DJGPP:

  Variable         Size
  ---------------------
  int              4
  unsigned int     4
  long             4
  ...

 Is there any way of correcting this? (I belive that this problem cropped up
earlier in thee newsgroup, but I didn't save the solution :( Or, should I
just use a different data type instead of int?

 Thanks in advance...
