Hi,
As many of you know VxDs are the tricky
piece of Windows which so far have
focused little attention.
But when one buys Thielen's 'Writing VxDs'
the only thing yet required to write VxDs in C 
is a good 32-bit C compiler.
In this book the authors used Watcom C but
I dare ask if anyone tried (or though of) to use djgpp
C compiler instead.

Basically I don't know if it is possible to
write something like
#pragma segmentname("_LOCKED_DATA_")
in other words if it's possible to force the
C compiler to name data and code segments .
as we want not as the compiler wants

any opinions
