I also field djgpp questions at dj@ctron.com, my usual mail address.

set GO32=emu c:\djgpp\emu387\emu387

This tells go32 (and debug32) to use the given file as the 387
emulator.  You don't have to change your program at all.  The clues
are in the patches documentation - I haven't integrated them yet as
the emulator is still experimental.

Use the batch file provided.  Basically, it's just like building a .sys
or .com file.  If you get the driver working properly, send me a copy
and I'll add it to the distribution.
