[i said][ it doesnt need go32.whatever....
[][                                      .......oops!

[][ after trying it out on my dos-only machine....
[][ after reading the docs for djgpp...
[][ damn.... they  _may_  require DPMI support.

[][ anyway... i have now re-compiled asciitool.c yet again
[][ using tc2.01 on my dos-only machine to produce a non-DPMI
[][ dependant executable of just 12Kb.

[][ thus .... the zip archive asctool2.zip 30Kb contains :-
[][     CWSDPMI.EXE  : provide DPMI support for djgpp compilations
[][     CWSDPMI.DOC  : documentation sheet for cwsdpmi.exe
[][     ASC-TOOL.EXE : new non-DPMI dependant raw rotation tool

____________________________________________________________
[][][ and can be found in news:alt.ascii-art.animation ][][]
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

[][ the asctools.zip 110Kb of the previous archive posted a few days
[][ ago should be renamed :-
        asc-tool.exe : asc-t386.exe
        tr.exe       : tr-386.exe
        sed.exe      : sed-386.exe
[][ and... the batch files need editing.

[][ non-DPMI dependant code for tr.exe may take quite a bit longer.
[][ ....i may just write a small stream filter....i dunno yet.

[][ i've added edited/corrected/working versions of the batch files

        lr.bat       : flip ascii picture left-right
        tb.bat       : flip ascii picture top-bottom
        cw90.bat     : rotate clockwise 90 degrees
        ccw90.bat    : rotate counter-clockwise 90 degrees

[][ ensure all files are in your search-path incl. cwsdpmi.exe
