:
The big DOS ports for GNU-C 2.x have one great disadvantage: they can't run
under a DPMI-Server. So you must reboot or exit the server.
 
My DPMI DOS-extender RSX can run unmodified EMX-0.8e+/GCC-programs.
The compiler works under DPMI-servers like MS-Windows, QEMM, 386MAX, etc. -
and you don't need a 387-processor.
 
RSXdj can also run relinked DJGPP-programs. The orginal a.out programs
can't run. The orginal extender run at privileg level 0, so there are some
restrictions. Some extensions for libc.a can be used (signals, fork, ptrace).
 
 
DPMIRSX contains :
 
- DPMI-compatible DOS-extender for GCC/EMX-0.8e+ programs.
        + 387 emulator
 
- DPMI-compatible DOS-extender for new linked GCC/DjDelorie 1.05+ programs.
 
- DPMILIB 1.1, the DPMI-Library for the DPMI specifiction 0.9
  ( version 1.00 exist on internet since 1991, some bugs fixed now )
 
:
- all source codes ( RSX-extender, FPU-emulator )
