Hi,

I'm a developer of uCON64 (http://ucon64.sourceforge.net). The latest
release (1.9.8beta7) contains some code that might be interesting for
DJGPP users. uCON64 can be build with gcc on UNIX (Linux, FreeBSD,
Solaris), DOS, Windows (Cygwin) and BeOS. For CD-related functions it is
able to dynamically load the DLL of the add-on library discmage. What
might be interesting for some people is to see how similar (or not so
similar ;-) the code for loading a DLL (Windows), shared object (UNIX),
add-on image (BeOS) or a DXE (DJGPP) is. The code shows that it is very
well possible for DJGPP programs to use a real plugin system, which
doesn't require a recompile of the main executable.

Kind regards,
Daniel
