As far as I know, Turbo C++ 1.0 is not able to create code compatible
with MS Windows, i.e. there is no way to get it to produce the
MS Windows function prolog/epilog. This may change in future
versions.

The only non MS, Windows compatible C++ compiler I am aware of is
Zortech C/C++ v2.1. I am using it for Windows development.

Of course, there is Glockenspiel C++, but this is a preprocessor, so
you have to buy a C compiler (i.e. MS C6.0), anyway.
