Filename globbing: Wildcard expansion under DJGPP
Disable globbing: You can disable globbing if you don't need it.
Special chars: How to pass arguments with special chars.
Long commands: DJGPP can pass very long command lines.
How long: How long can the command line be.
Makefiles: Makefiles can disable long command lines.
