I'm just now progamming 'C' in DJGPP (previously c++) and I need to know
how to get around a problem.  In my 'C' class we use MS VC which will
clear the input buffer with fflush(stdin), but djgpp (I believe due to
the os) won't.  2 things I need to know.  Is there a alternative
function to do this, provided with djgpp, or should I write my own.  If
I write my own, any ideas?  The second thing I need to do is have a
#ifdef statement that will detect the djgpp compiler so I can define
flush according to the compiler building the source.

TIA
-John
