Don't tell DJ you said that.  "Game Programming Platform" takes such a
limited view of what DJGPP is capable of.  The actual acronym is DJ's
GNU Programming Platform (see http://www.delorie.com/djgpp/history.html
for explanation).  For an explanation of what GNU stands for, see
http://www.fsf.org/.
