Hi, all.

I'm setting up DJGPP on my machine - got tired of fighting with BP7
for access to big chunks of memory.  Graphics are pretty integral to
my programs, and I'm having trouble setting up GRX20.

Specifically, there is a port of GRX20.h to  GRX20.pas, a pascal
unit.  But, when I try to compile it, I see that Cstring, pointer,
shortint, cardbyte, and a few other things are being used as types,
but have never been declared as types.  ("Error: type name expected...")

I found that Cstring is the same as __cstring__, but I'm not sure about
the others.  I expect that others have come across this before.  Am
I missing some other compatibility file, or some compiler setting,
or what?  Any wisdom from the elders?
