Please tell me whether FPC Pascal makes DOS ( DPMI ) protected mode DLL and EXE files, that is, a DLL ( called by a DPMI EXE ) that runs on DOS, even if there is NO Windows at all on my machine Also, can it make 16 bit DPMI EXE and DLL files in DOS, or is its DOS extender limited to only making 32 bit DPMI files? Also, does FPC Pascal make any type of DOS Overlays? That is, a Real Mode ( 16 bit ) Overlay compiled program, this would be like the BP 7.01 EXE that calls an OVR file, which, itself can be as big as maybe 16MB.

FPC can only generate 32 bit (and 64 bit, but those are not for Dos) executable. Also, does FPC Pascal make any type of DOS Overlays? No (overlays are largely redundant in 32 bit applications).

You can load dxe files (the go32 variant of a DLL) using the dxeload unit. Also, can it make 16 bit DPMI EXE and DLL files in DOS, or is its DOS extender limited to only making 32 bit DPMI files? Free Pascal is 32/64 bit, so the answer is no, you cannot build 16 bit DPMI files. Also, does FPC Pascal make any type of DOS Overlays? No, since it can use virtual memory there is not need for overlays. That is, a Real Mode ( 16 bit ) Overlay compiled program, this would be like the BP 7.01 EXE that calls an OVR file, which, itself can be as big as maybe 16MB. Overlays were an extremely limited way of having virtual memory, though there were very usefull to squeeze things in 640K. I doubt your current computer has a 640K memory limit, therefore you have no need to use such primitive tools.
