DJGPP v1 had a simple graphics library with a graphics.h header. This
isn't supported with DJGPP v2 any more.

If you mean graphics.h as it comes with Borland/Turbo C compilers,
there are compatible graphics lib's for DJGPP with the same
functionality. Look for grx22.zip and bccgrx20.zip in the v2tk subdir at
the same place where you got your DJGPP.

If you're starting graphics programming, you should use GRX directly,
not via the BGI compatiblilty layer.

For games, allegro may be a better choice.
