This should usually be the last resort.  If you *really* need it and 
cannot do it any other way, read section 17.6 of the DJGPP FAQ list 
(available as v2/faq200b.zip from the same place you get DJGPP).  It 
explains how to call a 16-bit procedure from DJGPP.

There should be no need to make this in 16-bit asm.  Use the GRX library 
which already has such a function.  Why reinvent the wheel?  GRX is 
available as v2tk/grx20.zip from the same place you get DJGPP.

And please read the FAQ.  Many questions, especially those asked by 
newcomers to DJGPP, has already been answered there.
